My baby is driving! It's not even possible that that adorable headstrong toddler morphed into a beautiful headstrong teenager and is turning 16 next month! My baby is gone! (Though she probably thinks she was never a baby) It's hard to believe that much time has passed. I know just yesterday she was playing in the sandbox at Grandma's and wearing floaties at the pool. Why didn't anyone tell me they grow up so fast? Does that make me old? Cause I don't feel old yet...hmmm....I'll have to ask Grandma about that one. Zanna can't wait to celebrate her 16th birthday. I hope it's everything she wants it to be. Love you Zanna and I am soooo proud of you!

cute pics, she is a good girl. lucky mamma!
I can't believe she is almost 16!!! Tell her happy B-day for me.
I need yours and Zanna's help with ideas. Please take a peek at my blog and respond to the post titled HELP!!!
Thanks you’re the best!
I know I shared my shock with you on Sunday and some enviousness? that you are "there". A child driver! It's so hard to contemplate right now. It seems so far away and I yet I know it isn't because Gavin is nine! I just feel like I'm swimming in a sea of babies sometimes. Who was I? Who am I? Boobs? Arms? A hip? Diaper changer?
Sometimes I dream about how nice it would be to be "there" but then will I wish to back "here" or when I am "there" will I want to be "way over there" and when I'm "way over there" (college years) will I regret not appreciating "here"? Sigh...
Had fun with you over today. It was such a nice break. Please come back.....
Oh yes. Do you still have that yellow hat? Will you wear it?
Love you!
Don't have the hat...it was from the store! It was awesome though. Susie you are right where you are supposed to be. It's hard to have your identity stolen by motherhood, I hope it's all worth it in the end. Some days it doesn't feel possible and others I see a glimpse of joy in the moment. However fleeting, it's there.
Wow!! Seriously I remember when you were pregnant with her--- She is a beautiful girl! Can't wait to hang out this summer at the beach-- sitting in the sand & just talking away.... sounds good right now!!!
It does seem like just yesterday I was being pried out of bed on my weekends to babysit her so you and mom could go shopping.
One of my favorite memories of Suz as a really little girl was sitting across the table from her and winking (right, left, right, left) at her and her doing it back to me.
Love the Havasu picture.
yum the beach would be awesome right now! I might have to go this weekend even if it's chilly!
oh thanks for the babysitting! It was so nice of you! I promise to try to make up for it with babysitting for you and your sweet chickies that I miss so much. Lake Havasu was so fun!
