She's a Teenager!

Yep, it's true, Taylor is officially a teen! I can't believe it! She is such a great kid and we are so lucky to get to raise her. She is smart, pretty, unique, creative, conscientious, trustworthy, fun, kind, talented, and a great big sister! She is such a great help and is turning into a young lady right before our eyes. Some of her favorite things include drawing, running, hanging out with friends, playing electronics, playing the piano, jumping on the trampoline, popcorn, ice cream, watching movies, and anything Anime (Japanese animation). She is successfully running her own pet care business and has recently started babysitting...it turns out she's quite the little saver as well! She's still in band (she plays the oboe), taking piano lessons, and is on the Cross Country team at her school. We are so proud of the young lady she is becoming and so grateful that she's a part of our family. How did we get so lucky?

Taylor really wanted a real kitten for her birthday but I vetoed that! :) Instead, she got my kind of kitty...

...although, she did get a real iPod Touch! :)

Happy Birthday Taylor!

We love you!!!
