"16"

We haven't talk to Nora much in years past about how old she will be on her birthday...seriously how much can you teach a child turning 1 or 2 about time passing.

This year is the big 3!...but according to Nora this is not true.

If we ask her, 'Nora you have a birthday coming up?'

Nora. ''Yes! I have ALLLLL my friends''

Us, ''You are right, all your friends will come over. How old are you going to be?''

Nora. ''16!!!''

(Insert us hysterically laughing the first time this was said)

Ahhh, child. How did you come up with that age? The age when daddy's start fearing boys around their daughters. Parents hand over keys. And every teenager thinks they've arrived at being an adult.

Do mommy and daddy a favor, don't grow up so fast. Slow down, we need every minute to soak up your sweetness before that day you turn Sweet 16.
