Caroline is no longer a teenager

Today is Caroline’s 20th birthday.

I’ll let you let that fact sink in.

Caroline was born during a snow storm. When Peter left the hospital, he had a heck of a time getting home.

I had no idea what the weather was nor did I care. I was spending time getting to know my daughter.

Over the years I have watched her grown from infant to toddler to child to teenager to adult.

It has been an interesting twenty years.

I have watched her art style refine since she could hold a drawing tool.

I remember the first story she told about a Mamma Unicorn and a baby unicorn were eating hay (the hay was paper I cut off while I was cutting a pattern)

Since then she has written a lot both for school and just to write. She had a short story published. She had art published on several books as well as magazines.

My child is intelligent and creative. She is also very disciplined. I think I can count on two hands the number of times I had to remind her to do her homework. She still works very hard on her school work. She has a goal and I think she is going to get there and amaze the world.

I love her more than I can express.

Happy Birthday Caroline!

Hope the day was good to you.

Glad I was able to burden your ears with my lack of singing voice.

I love you and believe in you.

Love,
