This Girl

  • is my middle child.
  • is 12 today.
  • is quirky and kooky and creative. i love that.
  • works really hard and is conscientious. she always does her homework well before it's due (except today, when she asked if, because it's her birthday, she could leave it).
  • sees things differently to most. she has a way of looking at the world that is uniquely her own. i love that about her.
  • has a range of emotions. i call that passionate. she gets this from me.
  • is a worrier. unfortunately she gets that from me too.
  • is an amazing writer. she writes with real depth of emotion and far beyond her years. she gets that from her dad.
  • is beautiful. stunningly so. oh, how i would love her cheekbones.
  • is honest (sometimes too much so...)
  • is growing up right before my eyes, she needs to stop. now.
  • used to be afraid of everything but now? not so much, part of growing up i suppose.
  • can eat. you can't tell it to look at her but oh, boy...
  • is a joy and a pleasure. i love her so much.
Happy 12th birthday my girl.
