I Have A Teenager...

Well, not technically, but from the looks of it, I might as well! Halee won't actually be 12 until May, but all of a sudden she is blossoming into a young lady. I have had several people just in the last month mention this to me. She isn't that much shorter than myself, and now boys are checking her out!!! What has happened here? I feel like I'm watching a movie of my child's life, and there was the scene of Halee being baby, then a toddler, then a child, and an hour and a half later she's a young woman. It's not fair how quickly life passes by. I love having Halee around! Her and I often like to escape the chaos and go shopping or out to eat. I am thankful for my soon to be teenager...but am not ready in the least to let her grow up.
