Hannah enters the Hive

Hannah finally turned 12.  She has been so excited to enter Young Women's for the last few months.  It is hard having your birthday at the end of the year.  Can't wait for the year she turns 16.  The beehives came over and decorated her door the night she was at her first Young Women's activity, preparing for camp.

 Hannah is so beautiful inside and out.  She is very caring and thoughtful.

 She loves her aunts, who are both so good to her.  She couldn't ask for better aunts.  They take her places that her mother won't.

Here are some things about Hannah
1.  She is very outgoing.  She can make a friend of any age anywhere she goes.
2.  She is a great babysitter.  She has started babysitting a lot since she turned 12.  One friend told me that she is the best babysitter she has had.  The kids had fun and the house was spotless.
3.  She has a beautiful smile that will only get more beautiful (she now has braces).
4.  She has several not so secret admirerers.
5.  She loves plays and acting (she always has since she was a little girl, her favorite movies for years were the Sound of Music and The Wizard of Oz).
6.  She loves her new I-pod Touch which she saved her money for and bought herself.
7.  She is very appreciative.  She is very thoughtful and is always telling people thank you.  Her teachers have told me that she thanks them everyday as she is leaving school.
8.  She has gorgeous hair, we are all jealous.
9.  Hannah has a gregarious personality.  She loves to have fun.
10.  She can make everyone feel important.
11.  She loves the song Walk Tall Your a Daughter (I love it too)
12.  She is very smart.  She learns things easily.

 I am glad that she still lets me give her kisses, but from the looks of things it won't be much longer.

We love Hannah so much.  She is such a great kid.  I am lucky that I get to be her mother.  She is an amazing young lady.  It if fun to see her grow up and be part of the journey with her.
