You’re 12!
Another year
has come and gone
You are
already 12 years old
You are one
more year to being a teenager
You’re getting
older, wiser, and bold
It still seems
like yesterday you were my little baby girl
You came on
your own time
When I finally
got to meet you, I looked in your blue eyes
And knew that
you would forever be mine
The years have
flown by and now you are here
Ready to start
7th grade
You had a
great first year in middle school
I’m so proud
of the effort you gave
You joined cross
country and track
And did a lot
of running
You helped out
with the spring musical too
Alice in
Wonderland was quite stunning
You also
joined the cooking club
And learned to
make all kinds of things
You keep a
binder of all your recipes
But pizza casserole
and mac and cheese bites are your favorite things
You had great
teachers
And made good
grades
You even got
to go to Medievel Times
And watch the
jousting charades
You still love
Girl Scouts and I’m still your leader
We do all
kinds of fun things
This year our
troop hosted a cupcake wars
You love all
the fun our troop brings
This summer
you went to Girl Scout camp too
You attended a
cooking one
You camped out
in a tent
And had fun in
the sun
Some things
have stayed the same though
Your favorite
color is still green
Your favorite
animal is still pandas
And you still
think Evie and Presley can be mean
I can’t
believe how fast time goes
How the years
really do fly
I wish time
would slow down
I often watch
old home movies and sigh
I’m so proud
of everything you’ve accomplished
And your
effort to try something new
I will always
be your biggest supporter
Because no one
else is like you
I want you to
always go for your goals
Set your
sights high and reach for your dreams
Know that you
can be do anything you want
Because I know
you are going to do great things
So Happy
Birthday to my Gracie Girl
May 12 be
your best year yet
Stay just the
way you are
And continue
to have fun and you are set
Love, Mommy
