Reasons to celebrate

Happy Birthday to Paige!
We celebrated with an Italian dinner at Maggiano's. We had enough food to feed the neighborhood. We had a great time being together.

Paige is officially 16 . Legal to drive. Legal to group date. A junior in high school and the newest member of our Laurel class.
Headlong into teenager, but still sweet
and kind and funny.

She fishes.

She is still the BEST big sister. She loves to fix things and is very mechanical. I wish I had taken a picture of her helping Daren last weekend. They replaced bathroom faucets together. Daren had one sink, she had the other. She's super smart and has been nominated for National Honor Society.
She still plays piano beautifully and helps keep our house full of music.

Thanks Paige for being exactly who you are. We love you!
