My oldest is turning 18!

I am dedicating this post to my oldest child who will turn 18 on the 18th of this month. Her father and I are so proud of her, and she is the best daughter anyone could ask for. I am posting a slide show of her to commemorate this special occasion. I love you Steph!!!




Have a great weekend everyone!!

What a great tribute to the birthday girl! Both of your girls are so pretty Melly. :-)

By the way, love the new spring look!

Congratulations to Stephanie and you made up a great tribute to her! It is rather a bittersweet moment as we realize they are growing up and leaving the nest but it really is what you when when you think about it. And she will be close enough to home you should be able to see her often.

This is the sweetest, most beautiful tribute to your daughter. You really did a great job with the pictures - I am jealous and in awe of your skills!! It is so beautiful how you put your love for your family right out in the open. My family is much less vocal in our affections. Stephanie can take one look at this entry and know that her mother loves her with all of her heart (I'm sure Stephanie already knows it, though!).

Happy 18th Birthday, Stephanie!!

Thanks you guys. It is a day of mixed emotions for me. Putting together this slide show was hard in some ways. It's not easy watching your baby grow up in the blink of an eye. She is an independent free thinking young lady now. Don't get me wrong, that's exactly what I wanted her to be, but it's still so bittersweet.
