So what is it about our children looking and acting like adults? I don't get how all this happens so quickly. I looked at Brynna the other day and she just seemed so grown up. She has really grown into a beautiful young lady. She started high school two weeks ago and she is loving it. She just seems taller and more mature all of a sudden and I just don't get it. Did high school cause this immediate change in our 15 year old daughter? What kind of spell did it cast over her? She has three years of high school and then she will be moving onto college and life as an adult.
Right now she is looking forward to life with the "old people"---that would be Michael and I. She will be an only child in our home and I am sure that it won't be her favorite phase of life. Not much we can do about that. I guess we will try and be as young and as lively and as fun as we possibly can be---being the age that we are right now that might be difficult. We are just so boring!!!
Brynna started high school in a new school and in a place that she did not know anyone. She had a positive attitude and went forth with a smile on her face. She made some friends quickly and she is loving her ASL class. She told me the other day that this school is a good fit for her and she is loving high school. She let me know that she will be old enough to go to prom in April. Yikes----I could have gone all year without hearing that. She will be 16 in less than 6 months. Oh dear what will I do then? My baby dating? Help!!! I am getting so old!!!
Moving to Provo has given Brynna many opportunities to babysit. She has been so excited to earn some money and purchase the things that she has wanted for school. We have felt that this has been a big blessing in our lives since she didn't babysit much in our other area. She loves to spend money and so it is good that she has her own money to spend now.
She is an amazing young lady who is growing up so fast. She is beautiful and fun to be with. I see such great potential in her---she has so much of life ahead of her. I just hope that she can make it through the times without her sister home. We love you Brynna---thanks for being the youngest. Hope you can put up with us "old people". You will keep us young!!!
