Sarah
Today, November 7, you become thirteen years old. Now you are officially a teenager. This is an important milestone on the way to independence. I hope you have a wonderful birthday and a superfragilisticexpealidocious life.
Sometimes dreams do come true and my dream became a reality when you were born, Sarah. I was not present for your birth because I was home watching your big sister, Rachel. But I got to the hospital later that day to see my new adorable granddaughter. And you slept through the whole thing.
Mommy had your picture taken in the dress I had given to her for her girls.
You were such a good baby and always ready with that big smile.
You loved Grandma's swimming pool.
And before I knew what happened you were a school girl, growing up so fast before my eyes.
The birthdays just started flying by.
Before I knew what happened you had become a lovely young lady.
It has been so much fun watching you grow up. I am looking forward to the next milestone when you change from a teenager into an adult. I know you will be a very special one and everyone who meets you will love you instantaneously, just as I do.
I love you, my precious Sarah. Have a very happy day and a successful life.

Ah, yes, becoming a "teenager" is a mile marker. Such an attractive young lady, your granddtr. I'm sure she'll treasure what you've written here, and the photos show maturation changes of which she can be proud.
