She's 18

I'm pretty sure I put a ban on Birthdays back in February! I think it's even in writing......
So how in the world, did our Baby J turn 18?
I wish I knew!
My beautiful niece turned 18 today and I have been in denial all day!
I am NOT old enough to have a niece that's 18!
OK, now that I have made my case, I can move on!
Baby J was born and immediately brought hope to her mom and her aunts. She was the first sign that things were really going to be different, positive, the start of a family as we thought it should be!


A beautiful, amazing young woman moving forward in her life.
As tough as it is to see her grow up, it's also exciting. I can't wait to see her reach her goals and dreams, to see her create new goals and enjoy her journey.
I pray her journey is smooth, exciting, beautiful, amazing and fulfilling. I absolutely adore her and thank God for her constantly! I know as she continues there will still be times where I get to cheer her on, hold her, cry with her, laugh with her, be angry with her, enjoy her but the days where I pray for her and thank God for her will continue on with constantly!
Happy Birthday Baby J! I love you and I pray, hope and dream the best for you, always!
