GOLDEN BIRTHDAY!!!








This is our beautiful Kae Lee. She turns 18 on May 18th. She will be the first of our children to have her "Golden Birthday". These are some of the pictures I took of her just for fun--isn't she just beautiful? I just think she radiates so much light and happiness. She is such a blessing to our family. I just can't believe that she is 18 already! Where did my baby that weighed 9lbs and 8ozs. at birth go? Now she is a tall, slim, and such a beautiful young woman who is leaving our family to go to college. I must be crazy letting her leave our home to be on her own up in Idaho. We will miss her so much. She is such a happy, fun, and sometimes crazy young lady with lots of love for everyone. She is a great friend and help to me. I am so thankful that she is part of our family. She teaches me that life is to be fun and not just drudgery all the time. She loves to explore and find out why things are the way they are. I know that I just take things for granted sometimes and Kae Lee helps me appreciate the beauty of things. She is a talented seamstress and artist. She has so many wonderful gifts and talents. She loves little kids and could play with them all day long. She will be an amazing mother someday. She has been a great asset to the day care at the high school this year--her teachers have had nothing but praise for her. I know that she will miss those little kids when school is over. I just have a hard time seeing her going off to college to pursue her education in nursing. This mom just might have an emotional break down when she leaves. We are so proud of her and the great job she has done with her schooling thus far. She will truly be missed by all of us.

You are an amazing young lady Kae Lee----you have taught us so much. Remember that your home is always where your family is. You can come home whenever you want!!
Happy 18th birthday to our Golden Birthday Girl!!!!! We love you so much!!!
