On December 16th, our sweet Brooklyn turned fifteen. Perhaps we should have celebrated her quinceañera with a huge party and fancy dresses. Fifteen really is a big deal! Instead we celebrated her love of good food and aptitude for math by sticking candles seven and eight in popeye pancakes for breakfast.
Make a wish, sweetie!
As for me, I couldn't wish for a better relationship with my teenage daughter. Brooklyn is thoughtful, witty, compassionate, hard-working, and a whole lot of fun. Here we are playing Machi Koro as she opens a few gifts from the family--a crocheted stocking and cinnamon gum from Talia, plus a glitter jar with a clay snowman on top from Annika
Brooklyn's main gift arrived a couple months early. Happy Christma-birthday, sweet girl! Your cello playing is delightful.
Happy, happy birthday to our firstborn! We are so very proud of the person you are, inside and out.
Now watch out world! A driving permit is coming soon.
