Dear ✨💅Sydney ✨💅, you are officially a teenager.
I first of all can't believe I am old enough to have a teen teenager. But now that I am here I am just so thankful that that teenager is you. ✨💅Sydney ✨💅 you continue to amaze me by your ability to understand complex things in the world and grapple with them and how peoples actions really do affect other people. You have learned this year so much more about loving and accepting people for who they are even when it's hard. You yourself have been having a lot of big emotions, but that is OK and I am so grateful that you have a place and a life that allows you and honors your big emotions because they are beautiful and they are truly what makes you. You continue to have few but super close friends that make you laugh and giggle. You continue to love hanging out with your cousins and you continue to absolutely adore Katz despite all our efforts to persuade you not to.
You are excelling at school not just academically but really being involved and paying attention to the things that happened there and people's actions and all the things in your world that are just silly. And we love that you tell us about it you tell us about the silly things that happened at lunch and the weird things that middle school boys do the way that you see people being kind and how they inspire you to be kind. You have really grown in your crochet skills this last year.
You have really learned to love it as a way to concentrate and meditate and just relax while doing something really really cool and productive. You have learned to really enjoy young women's and you were so excited to go to FSY and girls camp next year. You're not quite sure how you feel about your sister joining you in young women's but you know it's coming and you're preparing yourself and the best way possible and I am so proud of you for that.
My sweet girl you continue to love snuggles you continue to love being tucked in you continue to love as come into your bed in the mornings and slowly waking you up. You continue to devour cereal and you continue to love Ramen noodles and have become pretty amazing at making it and even beating dad being able to make the best Ramen no You are a joy to be around and I am so thankful that you are in our little family, we love you have a wonderful birthday, sweet girl.
Love - Mom and Dad
