Happy 18th Birthday Kayla!

So our baby turns 18 on October 25. She can now do many things legally without our permission. Such as getting a tattoo/piercing, smoke, play the lottery/gamble, etc. Hopefully she doesn't do all of them. She has the right to vote...which hopefully she will. The last 18 years have gone to fast for us. I can remember Kayla vividly from the day she was born. She use to drive a Cozy Coupe. Now she drives a Ford Taurus. She use to go to kindergarten. Now she is preparing for college. And all the memories in between.

From tiny toes to Barbie dolls.
From Barbie dolls to make-up.
From make-up to high school boys.
From boys to college,
It never ends.
Knowing you are growing
up to becoming a beautiful woman.
It is hard to let you grow and become a success.
We know you will find your way
As your dreams come alive.
We wish you the best that life can offer and
Remember you are only young once
So live it to the fullest.
We wish you Happy Birthday Daughter
From our hearts to yours.
