Our little GIRL....... our only GIRL........ is sweet 16!

Our little girl is now 16 years old! I can hardly believe it! She is a beautiful young women! We can't find too many faults with her except she has the world's messiest bedroom & she won't practice the piano without great persuasion & she makes me late for seminary (and as the teacher that isn't so good!! :-). Other than that she is absolutely the perfect teenager! She totally completed her Personal Progress and was going to the receive her Young Womenhood Recognition Award last November around that time they added the new value "virtue" and she said she wanted to finish that value before she got her medallion. She is also like 18th in her class at school so she is smart too. She really is perfect... she loves being a Laurel too!! She had a fun birthday party. She had a bunch of friends over and we had 2 Wii's on one with Guitar Hero Rock Band and the other with 2 DDR's!! We are very proud of our little girl!! Everyone wonders how we managed to get the perfect daughter. I know Heavenly Father knew what He was doing when He sent her to us because He had to make up for sending us 5 boys so He gave us one perfect girl!! As you can tell we love her a lot!!!
