Sarah's 15th Birthday

Sarah celebrated her 15th birthday with friends.  First we had lunch at Newk's and then painted pottery at The Pottery Place.  Later in the evening we had a family dinner with Mama and Papa.  It was a good day!

The Last and First Year of High School

Today our family begins the bittersweet journey of one daughter starting her last year of high school and one daughter starting her first year of high school.  Emily is a Senior!  How did this happen?  Sarah is a Freshman.  Could this be possible?  It seems like yesterday they were both in elementary school at Erma Siegel. Better yet, wasn't I planning play dates with friends just last week?  When they are younger it seems like time stands still and you can't wait for them to be older, bigger, more able to take care of themselves.  THEN - all you wished for happens and you are wondering what was I thinking?!?!?! 

To my beautiful daughters:  I wish you a happy school year and may you make memories to cherish the rest of your lives.
