Happy 13th Birthday!


My little "Hannah Banana" is all growed up and 13 years old. She is a teenager, curse word to my ears (that whole teenager thing)! What a great birthday she had. On her birthday she woke up to some presents, which she quickly tore into. I took her shopping and then she was treated to lunch with her family and Grandma Colleen! She picked "The Brick Oven" as her preferred place to dine and celebrate. Then she spent the night peforming for her family at her school play, "Joseph." Her siblings, her grandmother, her friends, her aunt, her cousins and her uncle were also in attendance to cheer her on in her lovely and "Tony" worthy performance. She blew out the candles on her cake afterwards and we all sang, beautifully, I might add to her! It was a great day for a great young lady!

She is growing up all too fast and growing up beautiful and sweet. She is fun and energetic. She has a great sense-of-humor flavored with a little sarcasm. She is strong and responsible. She is smart and determined. She is a natural leader with a compassionate nature. She is LOUD and likes to laugh. She is a talker and always has fun stories to tell. She is a our cheerleader! I am proud of her and the wise choices she continues to make. She has so many talents and continually discovers more!

We love you Hannah!
