My Baby Is Growing Up

On the 18th, Maci had her 14th birthday. I have been in denial for months. She has been in my Young Women's class and has been the president of the class for about 6 months. I have to admit, I reeeeeeeally don't want to let her go. She is getting so grown up--and she's a good kid to boot. Next month she will be getting braces and hopefully solving some of her dental issues. I squeeked by without having to pay for braces with all of my other 5 but NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO--to her. She had to ruin my streak. But I guess we love her enough to give her a beautiful smile. She makes us laugh all the time. Anyway, here is a picture of her on the morning of her birthday putting on her new "heart" earrings that she got.
