I can not believe I remember when she was small
She couldn't wait for this day
She said she wanted to be a teenager
In the worst kind of way.
When Hope was little she said sweet things
Like "Kunga" and "Gim, Gim, Gimme a call"
But now the first words out of her mouth
Are "Where is the closest mall?":)
Presents she had already received from her parents
But I had to buy her more
But what ever happened to liking
The Disney and Limited Too stores?
Hope came into my life
When I was only eighteen
I remember it like it was yesterday
She is my best real life dream
I couldn't imagine our family
Without Hope being a part
She is the first granddaughter, first niece
And will ALWAYS have a very special place in my heart!
So without going on forever
To Hope I want to say
I am sorry this is a day late
But Happy 13th Birthday!!
WE LOVE YOU HOPEY!!!!!
BoBo, Jones, and G-Dog:)
