Happy 16th Birthday!

Today my oldest turned 16! Wow I'm not sure how the time went so fast. I was just at the hospital being induced and waiting forever for the drugs to kick in to get it going..... now here is this grown up young lady ready to take on life. She is definately something to be proud of. The head on her shoulders is extremely well adjusted and she rarely deviates from the "right" path. In fact sometimes I can't believe how mature she is. I am also getting a little sad as she grows up as I know my time with her is dwindling- sure she'll come home and be with us on occasion but once she leaves for university it will always be different than it is now. Right now she is all ours- soon we'll have to share her....
