When Did This Happen?

When did Kiersten become a teenager?

Oh yah TODAY!  A part of me cried because I don't want her to grow up but a larger part of me rejoiced in the amazing young woman she is becoming!

Kiersten requested Fruit Pizza for her birthday!

She was super excited when she saw I was making it!

I love this girl with all my heart!  She was the one that first made me a mother and therefore we've experienced a lot of "firsts" together.
