See her at her school vocal performance last week?
She's not the only one growing up, though. Oatmeal Head, freshly minted 15, attended a dance recital this weekend. His girl who's a friend was dancing. This is the boy who wears his hats sideways and won't tuck in a shirt to save his life. See?
This is the boy who, with no prompting from his mother, came downstairs looking like this:
I give up. I'm giving them both keys to the car. They can get jobs. And move out. They're too grown up. *sigh*
Until I write again ...

Amazing and bittersweet how very fast time goes by. (sigh)
Aw.. I guess 'they' are right when 'they' say no kid walks to graduation or down the aisle in a diaper or holding their 'nudgie' (for those with dirty minds, a nudgie = Schroeder's blanket in Peanuts)
Aw.....Mom's proud moment, you've waited so long, Mr. Monkey face must've been happy to give Mouth to Mouth, did he offer? LOL!
Wow - they are growing up. However, they will always be your "babies!"
With kids--"Its Always Something. If Its Not One Thing Its Another." It IS nice when they come out of the other side of teenage hormone crazies and turn into people again.
I can't get over how much Maybelline looks like you. She is a beautiful girl.
You have reason to be proud. You have raising some pretty great people there in Oklahoma.
Sigh on....you've only just begun. Have fun!
Brace yourselves... they have a lot more growing up to do! Enjoy each phase!
I'm right there with you. I miss them being little and having little, but very noisy, problems.
Where does the time go? What happened to the little babies?
