My daughter Tori turns 18 today! Â : ) Happy Birthday Tori : )

Â

A young girl with 18 trips around the sun under her belt. Â What beauty and awesomeness has developed within her heart, her spirit and her mind.

I am so very proud of her : ). Â She is magic on two feet. Â She is the smell of beautiful roses that walks among life's garden.

She has so much to give this world. Such compassion, such kindness and oh so much love flows through her. Â Like the wind, the gentle breeze that flows through a forest or a valley of clover.

I have watched her grow up, since 4th grade Tori has lived her with me. Â She has been my little girl. Â The same little girl that I held in a rocking chair at birth, pushed in a stroller in NYC at age 2 and the same little girl I had birthday cake, ice cream cake, her favorite every year.

Today she turned 18.

Today she becomes a young woman.

Always she will be loved! : )

Happy Birthday Tori : )

Happy Birthday ... : )
