Happy Birthday, Sarah
Now You Are Fifteen
It makes me so very happy to realize that the beautiful baby I once held has grown into the lovely young lady that I see in this picture. Our family was blessed when you joined us. The nurse told your Mom that you were a beautiful baby and she was right. She went on to explain that, while all babies are cute not all are beautiful. I just watched a movie I made of your first days on earth and she was right. Most of all, you are beautiful inside where it counts.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY,SARAH!!!!!
I must agree with your Grandmother...You certainly are beautiful...
What a beauty this young lady is! Darlene, I see a very strong resemblance to you, in your granddaughter.
A Belated HAPPY BIRTHDAY,SARAH!!
Both of you are blessed to have each other in your lives. Happy birthday Sarah.
Happy Birthday beautiful Sarah; and she really is beautiful...inside and out. I hope she has a great day. ~Joy xo
*One Woman's Journey - Yes, I know you have a granddaughter by the same name. Aren't we the lucky ones, though?
*Nancy - I will tell Sarah.
*Grannymar - Thank you. Your comment pleases me. I don't know about Sarah, though. ;-).
*Rummuser - I am surely blessed.
*Joy Des Jardins - She did have a lovely day with her mother. Thank you.
Happy Birthday to Sarah. I hope you're proud of your feisty Grandma.
She is lovely!!!!!
Also, we are Ohio and we are proud!!! (Excuse me -- I'm seriously proud to be an Ohian tonight!!!)
*Betty - Ha!
*Kay Dennison - You have every right to be proud. Yeah for Ohio. We're all celebrating your victory. Take that, Kasich.
Isn't it amazing how much more mature youngsters look now than in our day? In our day a 14-year-old was a kid who would get smacked down for a touch of lipstick.
*Anonymous - I'm 86 years old and I wore lipstick at the age of 14 as did most of my contemporaries.
Darlene--I'm sitting here laughing. I don't know how it was where "Anonymous" or you grew up; but some of us at the age of 14 were just starting to realize that women wore makeup. (By then I lived in Kansas City MO.)
I think that I started wearing makeup when I went to work for Boeing at the age of 21 - and quit (again, while working for Boeing) at age 36. Neither our daughters nor our granddaughter (28 years) wears makeup; but, many of our friends do. It's a personal choice these days. Thank goodness!

P.S. Your granddaughter is probably equally proud of you!
Happy B-day,Sarah!!!
You have a wonderful grandmother :)
*Cop Car - I remember putting lipstick on for my 9th grade prom. That was the first formal dance I attended (an nearly the last one). I was 13 years old then. I grew up in Colorado Springs, so maybe we were the original sluts of our time. ;-)
Of course, lipstick was about the extent of our daring.
*Looking to the Stars - Thank you for the lovely compliment. You made my day.
You and I both have a Sarah! And both Sarahs are beautiful.
Happy Birthday to your Sarah -- a little bedatedly.
*Anne - On behalf of my Sarah, thank you for the birthday wishes. They are always welcome at any time.
Darlene--You have me ROTF LMAO, you slut, you! *laughing much too hard* We didn't have anything to mark the end of our 9th grade - or, any other for that matter until we were graduated from high school.
I did go to a dance in the basement of a church when I was 13 (his mother called my mother to arrange such a thing!) and I did wear "heals" and a strapless gown; but, I'm pretty sure I didn't wear lipstick. Maybe it's just a case of poor memory, though.
Thinking back, I think that the first time a boy actually asked me out, himself, was when I was a senior in high school (age 16). A sophomore, who sat next to me in drafting class, asked me to a hay ride. Within a few months, I was dating college guys, and it was a whirlwind bout of dating from then until Hunky Husband and I started dating a couple of years later.
Perhaps "annonymous" grew up in a similar environment - an environment where we sluts did not wear makeup! ; )

Lovely!
Happy belated birthday to the lovely young Sarah!
