Happy Sweet 16th Birthday Ella!

I’ve been excited for your birthday! You’ve been studying hard and counting down to taking your beginners. You’re my birthday loving girl and I just know you’ll enjoy every moment of your big day.

16 years ago you were the baby that taught me that I can’t always have control. Despite a solid plan, you arrived in your own time and way. You were always the adventurous one, passionate and excitable. You have never let the world shape you. You are your own person and stay true to who you are.

Your laugh is contagious. 99% of the jokes you love to tell are never funny to me lol, but the way you laugh at them makes me laugh every time. Your humor is so similar to your great grandfather and I love that you love to make others laugh. You love the stage and enjoy putting on a show, whether it’s drama or dance, you’re truly happy entertaining.

This year you went back to school after being home for a year. It was tough returning and everything is so different from when you left. But you dove in and are killing it in all your classes. I’m so proud of you!

You have such a huge heart. You truly love your people and we all feel it! You’re amazing with Ezra and definitely his favorite person. He loves his Ella. Your bond is so sweet. Best buds!

I’m so thankful for you Ella. You are such an amazing young lady. I’m proud of who you have become, your faith, values and love for others. You make me a better person and I’m so lucky to be your Mom. Keep being you! Love you baby girl!
