All Dressed Up and Growing Up

The caboose of our kid train is the 16 year old. Here she is dressed to attend a friend's Sweet 16 party this evening. The theme is black and white, so she went with the B instead of the W. White party dresses are harder to find in February.

Wow - only two more years in high school before she flies the nest for college. We want them to grow up and be independent, and then we mourn the loss of their childhood where we're their everything. So I plan to enjoy having the last kiddo at home, hearing the gossip and staying on top of all the latest trends in pop culture via the teenager.
