Sweet Sixteen

Today is my baby girl's 16th birthday. I can hardly believe it! Where has the time gone?

I took this picture of her on the way out the door this morning. We were in a hurry so it's a little blurry, but still cute!

Adorable at 4 months old.


Playing dress up at 2 1/2 years old. Look at those curls!


I forget how old she is here. Probably 6 or 7. Love the pose.


She is 100% sweet in this picture, for sure!


I think this one is from 5th grade soccer.
Before the short blue haircut.

She is so sweet, smart, funny, and a wonderful artist. Happy Birthday my Blue-Haired Girl! I love you!

I can't believe how much she looks like you!!! Okay, maybe not with the blue hair, but I would bet if you were to dye yours, she would~

Sweet sixteen...just sounds magical. I'd love to see some of her art. I also love the way she chooses to be herself...way to go Mom. You've done an excellent job of instilling self confidence into a remarkable young woman!

Her blue hair matches her blue eyes! I always wanted to dye mine Pink, maybe just for a week or so. Never happened , and I couldn't do it now. (To old and wouldn't be allowed at work) Ha! Ha! Happy birthday to your daughter.
