Dear Sam,
12! A growing up young lady.
You asked to try a new Korean restaurant for your birthday dinner.
You wanted a new haircut - a “wolf” haircut.
And a Kentucky derby pie!
At 12 you are:
Getting interested in fashion
Into jewelry and nail polish
Trying EVERY SINGLE craft known to man
Still in love with the cats (and all animals)
Taking advanced 7th grade math (one of only two sixth grade kids- and KILLING IT)
Still very into art and constantly drawing
Found a BFF up the street
Smart. Sassy, empathetic, aware of every social issue I can even imagine, always on the phone (much like my own 12 year old self), messy (we are working on sorting out if that is an attention problem), constantly trying to be a vegetarian (which is requiring REALLY branching on your food choices)
I really can’t imagine our life without you, love you kid.
Mom
She is such a beautiful young lady. I remember my two girls turning 12. They are both married now and one has twins, boy and a girl, age 5 and expecting another in May. The oldest does not have children, she is just spoiling her niece and nephew. I started following you when Jack was getting ready to start Kindergarden. It has been fun following them.
