Nanna Turns 13 April 16, 2009 and My Parents Celebrate 66 years on April 17

Posted By on April 16, 2009

We have a teenager in the house now…..Nanna (AKA Leanna) turned 13 today!  She surely was HAPPY to be teasing us about the fact that she was going to turn into a teenager!!!!       It seems like only YESTERDAY that I was singing her to sleep!

She started the day with a 13 candle breakfast – and personally, I kind of liked the Breakfast Fairy’s idea of putting a candle in a Rice Krispie bar – hey, it IS CEREAL!         It seems like only yesterday that she was saying MEROTE instead of REMOTE!

Happy 13 Leanna

I drove Leanna and Kenzie to the bus stop…… 
It seems like only YESTERDAY that she cried because she didn’t want to turn 8 and grow up!

Tonight we had pizza, cake (DELICIOUS ICE CREAM CAKE!) and presents……

It seems like only yesterday that she wore a doll blanket on her head as a scarf to preschool and I didn’t have the heart to tell her that it was a fashion faux pas.

Five year old Cooper heard his mom  (my DD)  “jokingly” say that she wasn’t going to allow any teenagers in the house …
.. so today he told his friend that Leanna was going to move out. 
It seems like only yesterday that she was driving a little pink  bicycle.
It is funny to see what misconceptions are confabulated in a child’s mind.  He  also asked my DD if Leanna were going to drive herself to TARGET.  Teenager = driving a car!

Leanna is a sweetie – and personally, I am going to PRETEND that she is still 12!  🙂

Life is fun!  And Saturday night when the birthday slumber party erupts, it is even going to be MORE FUN!

AND IF THAT WERE NOT ENOUGH EXCITEMENT…….. 

Tomorrow my parents will be celebrating their 66th wedding anniversary…..
