Tedi-girl turns 14, UGH!!!!

I did the math, it's true.... I thought for sure it was a mistake.

Yet, Tedi-girl was born the day after Baby girl's 7th birthday

If Bg turned 21 yesterday then Tedi-girl has to be 14.... UGH!!!

Sometimes I feel that I am repetitious when it comes to

bragging about my godchildren and great nieces and nephews.

However, there is just not enough times I can say what

a wonderful, well-adjusted child Tedi-girl is.

She is a cheerleader now for Golden Meadow Middle School

and just like we all know, a new popularity comes with that.

Parties and new friends less time at home.

All natural in the growing up portion of being a teenager.

She still, if I call, finds time for her Nannie.

Every time I speak with her or I spend time with her,

I realize just how special she is.

Her morals, her kind heart, her always putting others

before herself- it is phenomenal.

A well-rounded wonderful child who is the apple of

her mother and deda's eyes.

Tedi-girl rolls with the punches.

When her parents divorced, it was hard for her

but in true Tedi-girl fashion she did not let

it change who and what she wanted to be.

She continues to love both her parents

and thrives on the time spent with them.

I had two godchildren before her, Em and Rick

but at the time they were growing up, I had

my own babies to nurture so I didn't get to spend

as much time with them as I would have wanted.

Tedi-girl was the first godchild that I could be there

for in the way I believe a Nannie should be.

I am proud to be part of her upbringing and

out of all my godchildren, I do believe she and I have

the most in common.

Tiffany, her mother has always put this child first

and it shows in her self-esteem, her moral beliefs.

She is a child that any one would want to call her own

but believe me, she is not up for grabs and even if she was,

it would be a fight between her deda, her granny and her Nannie.

Have a beautiful, fantastic birthday just like you are to us all.

Proud to be your Nannie, today, tomorrow and always.
