Happy Birthday Thing One!!!

Here she is, in a much younger photo. Today she's thirteen--a teenager, and yeah, I sorta feel old now. I mean, I have a teenager. But like I said in yesterday's post--it's not like it will be much different than it has been the last couple of years. Although she did ask if I would let her drive the car on our driveway the other day, and I SHUT THAT DOWN very quickly. I mean, she is thirteen. Two more years before we will even HAVE that conversation!

Time sure flies!

And I'm really sad because the number one thing on her birthday "wish" list? A pair of black Converse high-top shoes. Seriously. She says everyone has them. I told her to go get her brother's and wear them, because they have the same size feet. (Darn you, Kristen Stewart! How is it that YOU ended up a role model???? UGH!)

I have lots to do today. I'm making a birthday cake (rainbow chip, yeah, we sure are "original" around here) and wrapping a couple of presents (only a couple because she got an iPhone last week for her birthday) and mostly the presents are things like a flatiron, hair stuff, etc. because I'm sick of her using mine! And I need to hunt down a Krispy Kreme and get doughnuts for tonight because her church group is going to a corn maze. So, if I go into a Harris Teeter and buy the Krispy Kreme there (as opposed to driving 15 miles away) do you think anyone will care BESIDES MY HUBBY???

I hope everyone has a good day!
