birthday!!

well yesterday was my daughter's 17th birthday, so this post is dedicated to her..

she is a lovely, smart, thoughtful, beautiful young woman.

though here is another way we are different, to me, a birthday is an opportunity to wear a crown all day, to have the wait staff at a restaurant sing to you.. and then maybe go to a second restaurant for a second dessert and be serenaded there also.

a birthday is a time to be a spoiled.. in fact i am constantly trying to figure out a way to extend my birthday to a birthweek!

my daughter just wanted a nice subdued day.. that's what she got.. but it took all my strength to not make a bigger deal out of it.

anyway...

all those who get to know her in her life will be richer for it.

just in case you think she is perfect, she isn't.. she has flaws...

the biggest of which is she hates sports!

ugh!

just my luck that i would have one child and she would despise sports of any kind ( unless you consider fashion and shopping as a sport.)

happy happy my sweet girl!!!
