Aaagh!! We have a TEENAGER!!

Happy 13th Birthday Darrelle.....
13 Years ago Today ~ 12th February 1996 Declan and I welcomed our first child into the world….
….. She was a joy from the start.. from sleeping all night in the hospital to her lovely even temperament.. that set the tone for the following years…

Already I can see that the next 13 years will not be so trouble free.... This young lady is now quick to let me know that she does not agree with everything I say or suggest or do... but then she wouldn't be a teenager if she did!!!

My wish for her today is to enjoy the next few years, that she will keep her sensitive nature, her concern for others, her willingness to perform when asked, to make new friends, to keep the lovely ones she has, to be her own person, to enjoy her years of formal education, to have good values, to embrace life positively and to stay healthy and happy .....

We are very thankful for our precious daughter....
