Rats!


Well, i missed yesterday. Dang! It was Lindsay's birthday and I wanted to write a little about her on her ACTUAL 16th birthday! I have to admit, I thought about it around 11 p.m., but I was pooped. Anyway, I'm back and I have to give myself a break. It WAS a busy day. Besides that, I didn't see her again after I dropped her at school. She had a soccer game a couple of hours away, and didn't get home until midnight (yikes, a school night, too). But, I did make a pan of "Fudgey Oatmeal Things" for Scott to take to the game and she said everyone loved them. And, this morning, the little girls and I gave her the presents we all bought yesterday. She seemed truly happy about the e-pet Annie picked out (so they could play on the computer together, which I thought was sweet of Annie to think of), the HUGE white sunglasses Kellie picked out--really, they were perfect, a cool belt and some pearl earrings from Natalie and Emily and a waver from me. Daddy's in charge of getting her a new cell phone and I'm taking her and her 5 best buds to Hibachi tonight. It is just crazy to think she is 16. I hardly act older than that myself! She's just such a great kid. I have always felt that way about her. I hope she always knows how much I love her and how blessed I am to be her mom.
