Happy Sweet 16th Birthday Sami...

How did this happen? She went and grew like a weed! Samantha Lynn Mathis.....Sweet 16....I still remember, like it was yesterday, holding her in my arms at the hospital! Even though we knew for sure that someone had switched babies on us....Hahaaaa.....we fell in LOVE! As she grew, she fell in love with Barney, Olivia and Angelina Ballerina. We just couldn't compete but we plodded on. Time...It passes so fast. If you have grandchildren remember this...hold 'em, love 'em and always let them know your "door" is always open. Happy Special Birthday to our Little Love...May your light continue to light our way.....

16?! No way! She is a gorgeous gal and best wishes to her as she grows into a young lady! I know that she is a lucky one to have you as a grandma!

I guess when you think about it 16 years passes in the blink of an eye. and when it's our children and grandchildren growing up, that passage of time is all the more poignant. happy birthday wishes to Sami, and many many more. You are blessed Donna! have a beautiful celebration with your granddaughter! {{{hugs}}

So true! Time sure flies when you have 'grands!' I'm quite a bit further down that road than you...but you never forget how it was when they were little!

Hope your Sam had a wonderful birthday!


Love,

Junie
