Happy 16th Birthday to our beautiful, amazing Paige!
Paige,
You always bless us with your upbeat attitude and love for people around you. Sometimes we wonder how you roll with changes so well and when we want to throw a tantrum over uncertainty we have to stop and look at our kid; setting the bar high by always taking it one day at a time and living in each moment so beautifully. Thanks for teaching us.
We are proud of you and love you so very much.
XOXO
In quick review, the crazy events of your year:

Happy Birthday, Paige! Oh, you should take your driver's test in TN. I don't think they fail anyone. Hence all the scary drivers on the road here. Just saying.
