Our youngest turned sixteen yesterday. Back when we started this parenting adventure, thinking of our baby turning sixteen seemed an utter impossibility. I was sure I would be parenting small children forever and ever! And homeschooling them forever, too.

I remember when Mariah was little and she said

"When I'm the Mama and you are the grandma, who is going to be the honey?"

Years have past and I am now old enough to be the grandma.

But I can happily say that Mariah will always be the honey!

Happy Sixteenth Year, Mariah!
