twelve years later and she is still teaching me.
patience.
laughter.
pre-teen drama.
how to mend broken hearts.
how to say no...when you want to say yes.
she came into this world with some drama...
and she still brings us drama.
{photo above is from her school play a few weeks ago. she had a leading role.
the play opened the day after we returned from paris.}
