Summer has been 12 for almost 1 month now. I can't believe it! She is loving Junior High (which I certainly didn't), being a Beehive, and just loves all her friends. The girls here have been so amazing here in Gilbert, AZ, and have just welcomed Summer with open arms. Of course she has a jillion friends because who doesn't like Summer?! I am so proud of the young woman she is becoming. She has so much more courage and faith then I ever had at that age. She knows who she is and doesn't lower her standards for anybody. She is such an amazing example to me. I just got called to be the Beehive adviser and am looking forward to spending more time with Summer and the amazing youth that surround her. They truly lift my spirits and want me to be better. So for Summer being 12 is great! I am so glad that she is loving it more than I did and that I get to relive it again with her, except this time having much more confidence in myself since I am actually 34 and not 12. Children grow so fast, but it is so amazing watching them grow. I am so glad I have been enjoying the journey even when it has been really hard to do so at times. It is all worth it. I love my kids! They are my joy!
I like your blog so far but you need to let people know about it! I will look for more updates after your trip!

Hello! I just saw your blog on Andrew's blog list. How come I was not notified of your blog address? And how come you didn't tell me you were the Beehive Advisor? Don't we see each other every week? Boy I need to start asking you more questions. I love your blog layout. So cute.
