HAPPY BIRTHDAY
SWEET 16!

This sweet little thing has now turned

SIXTEEN!!!!

It is hard to grasp that Jessica is 16 today! She has been waiting to turn 16 since she was three years old. Not kidding - she really has. she told me when she was three that was what she wanted in life was to be "grown-up" "like sixteen". Well, she is finally there!

I will try not to get to mushy and personal and embarrass her on her birthday but, a few things must be said. I find my self, more often than not, looking at Jessica and wondering how she turned out to be so amazing. As much as I would love to take credit...I think she was just sent to me that way. She is so good. She trys hard at everything she does. She has a clear vision of right and wrong and chooses the right. I am so proud to be her Mom and so thankful. I am so blessed to have the relationship I do with her. I love you Sweed! (i know it getting mushy) Happy Sweet 16!
