Hello November.

Why hello there, November. Where did you come from? I can't believe it's already so late in the year. The fall always seems to fly for us. Pretty soon the snow will be flying here, and we'll be opening gifts! We've been busy with choir concerts and swimming lessons and Halloween. And then there's this:
She went and turned 14 on me.
She's turning into a little lady right before my eyes! Egads. Time goes by much too fast. If you have little ones, enjoy every moment you have. Before you know it, they are talking back and texting and out with friends... and momma's not such a big deal anymore. :)

Your daughter is beautiful! As the mom of 4, from 25 to 31, I can tell you that even though you may have to take second place to their friends and suffer mood swings and the silent treatment (from girls), with time they will come back and realize how important their family is to them (especially their momma!). So hang in there and know that they love you even if they don't show it as much! Have a great day!

Danielle she is a beauty just like her Mom! My son Tim turned 9 years this summer and I agree that the time goes by FAST! This year feels like 1 month instead of 12 to me!

A beautiful young lady! And they do grow up so darned fast....I wish there were a mute button on the growth at times...You know where you could pause on different stages...and maybe fast forward through the challenging ones. LOL!
I am mother to 2...one to get married next year and the other is married and just gave me my 3rd grandchild a month ago. Life is so full of blessings no matter where we are in the stages of it!
Thanks for sharing!
