I have a young woman!!

     I am amazed at how fast life goes by. We certainly have had many adventures, travels, and growth experiences! I always hear that parents always mess up their first kid and I have done my best to prove that wrong. I think I have done a pretty good job! I try not to argue and become a teenager when she makes snarky remarks and I try to listen without getting mad. Miriam is pretty darn awesome!
    I don't know what to say about her. She is helpful, conscious of what needs to be done, willing and able! She is growing up so fast. She has a lot of confidence to still build in herself and I hope I am helping not hindering that process. She is a quick learner and is getting pretty good with piano! Almost as good as I am (not that I have much skill). She is also almost as tall as me! I hope she passes me soon! :) Here is a present of my 12 year old Young Woman with her new 31 bag she got for her birthday!
My heart is so full to have her as a daughter! She is beautiful and much smarter than I was at her age! She has a growing testimony and I believe she will stay faithful throughout her life!
I love you Miss Mimi!! (p.s. she doesn't like to be called that anymore -except for Emma-! Sound familiar MandY? <3 p="">
