I can’t believe she is 16.
It feels like just last week that my mom and sister showed up on my doorstep, half-way around the world, just in time to take me to the hospital to have Ashton. And now she is 16. Now there is driving and dating. And only 2 more years of high school. Craziness.
I am a pretty lucky mom to have her as a daughter. She is so smart, funny and creative. I’m also pretty lucky to have her as a friend. I love that this last year of very hard stuff has allowed us to become so much closer.
I am really excited to see where she takes herself in life, I only wish I could slow it down a little 🙂
I love you Ashton, and Happy 16th Birthday!
