Chloe,
As I was going through our pictures (which are decreasing in number each year) from this past year, it made me sad to see how your baby face is maturing into a young adult. Your smile is still bigger than ever, especially on the volleyball court. This year you decided to do away with basketball and focus on volleyball. I am so proud of your determination to get better, make it to the finals, and win! Now I still owe you a pair of Lululemon shorts:). I have enjoyed the time I have spent with you shopping, and I love how you still want my opinion. I hope it lasts for a little longer. You have great taste too:) You've taken more of an interest in Grace this year, helping her do her hair and get pretty for school. You continue to excel academically and challenge any points you get deducted on your exams. I get frustrated with your perfectionism, but I'm laughing inside because I was the same way. This last year before you're officially a teen will be bittersweet, but we are forever grateful for the fierce little girl we've had. We love you "to Heaven and back". -M& D
