Today our daughter - our eldest turned 13! A new teenager in the house.

Happy birthday to your DD! Love all the little details of your card, like the shoes and the jewels! How blessed your teen is to have a mom like you! It does seem like our time with them just flies by! My 15 yo just shaved for the first time a few weeks ago...I am so aware of how precious our remaining time with him under our roof is, and I want to savor every second!
Christine, what a perfect card for your new teen. How can you be old enough to have a teen? You look like a teen to me. I love the papers you used to create the shopping bags.
