My how they grow!!!

Well, for those of you who know and have seen her...the one in the middle is mine. This was just last weekend 5/3/08. my baby went to the prom. (that is her date to the right of her in the picture). These are two of her best friends; April (on the left) and Vanessa (on the right). Of course, she came to visit me in the er while i was working all dressed up and yes, i did shed some tears. (hormonal this time of month) anyway, i can't believe how beautiful she has grown up to be.

I do remember her just a few years ago when she was younger and her comments were so wonderful and refreshing. Mom i love you so much; mom, will i ever be as beautiful as you, mom, can we spend more time together?, mom, lets go have a girls day and just be together.....now to the present...mom, why can't i get another pair of shoes, why can't i have the car, why can't i stay out all night, why do i have a curfew, my friends don't, why cant i......oh and once in awhile she throws an i love you mom in there which is refreshing to me because she is the most wonderful kid in the world.

She does like to go all supermodel sometimes. She for the most part is a very strong individual who once in a while breaks down and gets through it. she is active in most anything there is to do. She is a wonderful basketball star and was moved to varsity this past season as a sophomore and started the second game. She was in the newspaper quite often and yes,,, i have all of those clippings. She played volleyball and currently is in soccer, and played indoor soccer this past winter. She is pretty much good at everything she does. She gets really good grades and is wanting to go to the navy and then on to law school. I think she has a great head on her shoulders and i absolutely love her to death. I don't know what i did to deserve such a fine young lady.

A little goofy and a lot of love is how i describe her. Our favorite thing to do together is watch our two favorite shows...Desperate Housewives and The Hills. She is a very good daughter and besides being a slob she is almost perfect (a little biased though). But seriously, I have gotten very lucky with all my kids. Brittany is the most wonderful daughter and is a very intelligent, level headed young lady. The one thing i love about her is that we can tell each other everything and her and i are extremely close. We can sit on the couch and cuddle like best friends. There isn't a day that goes by that we don't tell each other we love each other and we always end every phone conversation with "I love you".

This is her very best friend in the whole world...Krista. She is like another daughter to me. She has been on all our family vacations with us and she truly is faithful and loving to Brittany. No one could ever as for a better friend. Love you too Krista!!!!

So, there you have it. The bragging begins...and i still have three more kids!!!!!
