Celebrating a Birthday.

My daughter turned 16 on Thursday.  I can't believe the beautiful little girl I gave birth to is now 16! It went by WAY too quickly!!! I want her to be turning 5 again and just starting school! I want her to be 8 and learning how to ride a two-wheeler.  I want her to be 10 and starting to like boys a little more then her mom would care for!  I want her to be 12 even and just starting Middle School and starting to feel a little bigger or 13 and JUST becoming a teenager! I do NOT want her to be 16 and learning how to drive on the road with all the crazy drivers here in NJ.  I mean how is she going to react when the idiot who stayed up all night is starting to go over the line a little as she driving down the parkway? Is she going to be responsible enough to tell her friends NO she can't look at whatever they are showing her until they pull over???? Will she REALLY stop when the light is yellow if she is a little late for school? When someone needs a ride and she ALREADY has one person in the car is she going to let another in because she feels bad the other is stranded? OR is she going to obey the law that says only one other person in the car unless they live with you?  All these things and 100s more go through my head as I drive down the road every day thinking of my "little girl" on these busy NJ roads everyday.  And this is before she even passes her written test(she is not doing too well on the practice tests) and gotten her permit!  I guess I better enjoy 16 because 17 is going to definitely turn my hair gray!!! Its going to make me sleepless (although they can only drive until 12am).  Let me enjoy my last year of her needing me to driver her EVERYWHERE....oh wait her friends are starting to get their licenses starting this summer.....oh no the worrying is going to start .....now....goodbye brunette hello granny.... 

Ok well I am DEFINITELY going to dye when the time comes......but wish me luck with the worrying it is NOT going to be easy....

On a side note here is a little something I put together for her for her big SWEET 16 day. Well not big she didn't want any big party she just had 2 of her friends come out to dinner with us and then we had ice cream cake and sang and her dad surprised her with white roses.

Sorry some of the fonts are a little difficult to read I was trying to be "fancy".  I really was trying to find the generator that you put in the wording and it generated a Subway Art Poster.  Does anyone know where that is?????  Anyway...here's to a good year for my girlie!  And of course you all of you....
