…I want to be just like my kids!
They are each great in their own unique way…each having their own…WONDERFUL-NESS!
And our oldest, Kayleigh, has definitely been paving the way for 19 years now! Happy Birthday, Kaygee-Hanners!!
I’m so glad you were born! 
I love how passionate and mature you are - and I love that even though you’re highly driven and intelligent (working, volunteering, and keeping up your scholarship), you still have a “lighter side”……..a…….blond-er side!
Like, yesterday, when I was complaining about my injured finger and you said,
“Mom, maybe you should go see one of those doctors: you know, an ANTHROPEDIATRISIST: the ear, eye and….”
(Me:) “….and finger doctor?? - yes, Kayleigh, I believe that would be exactly what I would need!!”
And, yet, you’re doing so well in pre-calculus!!
Sorry about the whole blonde gene thing….just embrace it…..!
I have always tried to encourage it, I’m afraid - like when you were 2 1/2 and you sang the ABC’s:
“ABCDEFG-lellow-mellow-B…R!!”
and I said, “Yay, Kayleigh…that was sooooo good!!!”
I hope your year is full of as much joy as you bring to everyone who knows you. You are wonderful to me - truly, a gift from God!
I love you…
Happy, happy birthday, Kayleigh!
Love, Mom
Awe, One of my favoritest cousins with one of my favoritest nieces! Such a cute picture and a cute post :). You are such a cool mom!
Happy Birthday Kayleigh! ♥
Sounds like she is just as sweet as her mama is.
Thank you for raising a wonderful baby into an amazing young woman. You and Byron have great kids! I’m very thankful Kayleigh is part of our lives in Powerhouse and Natalie’s small group leader in The Mix.
It’s love not money that makes you rich. I think your family is very rich indeed!
