BROOKLYN'S 12th BIRTHDAY

It's my girl's 12th birthday. I can barely pick her up any more, but I still do to make her cuddle with me. She told me today that the pair of shoes I bought her for her bday were ugly, haha. Oh, well. She'll always be my creative, singing, and energetic little girl. I'll take her preteen attitude and opinions any day if it means she still wants to talk to me and hope we can keep our good relationship going through the teenage years. I love, love, love her. Happy birthday, Brooklyn!Brooklyn chose a watermelon cake for her birthday dessert. Some of her favorite gifts were clothes, a mannequin head to practice hair, and squishimals.
