Our Young Woman

Our baby girl isn't a baby anymore. Taylor turned 12 on April 17. She celebrated twice. On Thursday I took her to Sephora to get a makeover and buy some makeup for her, then I took her to her favorite restraunt Red Robin for dinner. On Friday she had a party with 8 of her friends at our house. The girls all made flowers into hair clips. Then I took pictures of each of them as a keepsake. My friend Natalie made some awesome cupcakes for Taylor's party that Taylor helped design.
This Sunday was Taylor first Sunday in the Young Woman's program. All of the girls and leaders came to primary to get Taylor. Alan and I stood in the hall to watch her go. We had big smiles on our faces but a little bit of sadness that our baby girl has grown up so fast. I really don't know where the last 12 years have gone! I'm so proud and thankful for this young woman of mine.
