Eighteen years ago today, I became the mother of a daughter.
18 -- such a wonderful age, and she is a wonderful daughter. Through the years, we have gone on field trips, gotten lost in my car on purpose, volunteered together at GRACE then the library and also at church, learned together, cried together, and frequently laughed together.
Another thing we do a LOT is we match clothes -- totally unintentionally. She will come downstairs and we look at each other and we are both wearing jeans and red shirts; or jeans and our OSU shirts, or things like that!
She is a student! She loves learning. She teaches herself things that interest her. She recently became interested in poetry and read many of the great poets books.
She is a knitter! I am fortunate to be the beneficiary of a couple purses and a pillow. (She is also a yarn snob)
She is a cat lover!
She is a smart girl! (I am not just saying that because I am her mother, others say it too)
She is beautiful -- both inside and out!
She is a blessing to me.
Happy 18th Birthday Kathryn

I would say "I agree" with all the lovely things you say about Kathryn. The relationship you and Kat share is a beautiful thing. I love you both. Grandma Marie
