Today is my daughter's 16th birthday. I don't how it is possible that my youngest is 16 because I clearly remember being 16. One of the things I gave her was a ring that I received when I was 16. It would be a really cool blog post if I added the picture from when I received it and today when my daughter received it but I am too tired right now. So, just imagine it. Maybe tomorrow.
For her birthday my daughter had some of her friends over and I have to say I was impressed. All of them came upstairs and talked to me and were so polite. It proves that not all teenagers are rotten. Even though my Scorpio daughter and I (a double Pieces) don't always agree she is a good kid and I am so incredibly proud of her. She has a tender heart. For several years at school she volunteered her lunch breaks at school with a little girl with Down syndrome. She wants to become an occupational therapist because she had multiple health issues when she was small and remembers all the help she received.
OK, I just realized the time. We are going out for dinner. Gotta go!
Happy Birthday to your little gal. I'm sure she knows how proud you are, even though you don't always get along. What a special person she is, to help that little girl during lunch.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to you girl. I feel, and love, your pride. And your upbringing and your nature contributed to who she is - so feel a little proud of yourself too today. And everyday.
ReplyDeleteYou can remember being 16!?! Are you a mutant super hero? All I remember of being 16 is the 10 year old powder blue Ford Tempo I was tasked with maintaining until it was put our of its misery. Are you Harry Potter that you figured out how to move past this and actually sire a child!?!
ReplyDeleteHappy "Sweet 16" Birthday to your daughter! Occupational therapy is a great career choice.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to your kiddo.
ReplyDeleteSweet post! Happy 16th to your daughter. My younger daughter turned 16 in July, so we both have girls around the same age. Hard to believe sometimes that they're already this age.
ReplyDeleteYes, not all teens are rotten. The kids my daughter hangs out with all terrific. There are good ones.
Happy Birthday to your daughter! :) I love seeing the good in others... warms my heart.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birth Day to you both!
ReplyDeleteI remember 16.
My "baby" is turning 19 in a few weeks.
Sigh.
Where does the time go?
Happy birthday to her! I can't believe 16 was 21 years ago, and I feel old saying that. I remember my party.
ReplyDeleteShe's lucky to have such a wonderful mom.
Happy Birthday to your daughter! x
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to your daughter and congratulations to her for having such a proud mother:)

Linda :o)
Happy Birthday to your fantastic daughter. Hope she had a great 16th.
ReplyDeleteDamn, I missed your daughter's birthday! Hope she had a lovely day.
ReplyDeleteWish her a very happy birthday from all the traveling cats ;-)
ReplyDeleteAnd about your question where I find all my cat photos: most of them are my own, because I take my camera with me wherever I go and snap pictures of every cat I meet. Sometimes I also get submissions from readers or I find some cool pictures on other sites. If the pictures are from someone else, I always mention where they come from. Otherwise they're from me ;-)
