It's hard to believe we just spent the evening celebrating the beginning of your teenage years! In part because I still want to see you as the little 9 month old girl I first met, time has gone too fast. ...and in part because you've acted like a teen since age 3! :)
You're our favorite fiery red head, boy crazy, blunt, always good for a laugh girl.
I have so many wonderful, touching, and hilarious memories of you. When you were a baby and young girl, uncle Adam and I would rather hang out with you than do normal high school stuff. We'd rather sing Richard Scareys alphabet song and watch you bash your poor moms face in with a wind up radio toy than go to a football game. ((speaking of football - you'll never remember how terrified you were of your uncle dressed as a woman for powder puff, but I'll never forget)). Lol. We'd come home early from a dance to watch 14 episodes of Blues Clues with you! You taught us a lot about children and helped form our parenting skills from a young age.
As we grew older and got busier getting married ((to which you were an adorable flower girl)) to start our family we see you less than we'd like. Our relationship and memories not forgotten, only replaced with hopes and dreams of you turning into the wonderful girl you are today! I enjoy our recent heart to hearts and I hope you know you can always come to us for anything.
Finally, I wish you nothing but happiness and fun in your teen years! Keep sweet and true to yourself. I know you'll go far in life, theres something very special about you! But one last thing, cool it on the boys and wanting to grow up so fast business already would ya? Uncle Adam is gonna have to crack down on the boys department. ;).
I have nothing but love in my heart for you. It's a joy to be your Aunt. Thank you for all the good times, happy 13th sweetheart!
