It's hard to believe this little girl...
just turned 18!
She had a chemistry test during the day, but after school we celebrated with dinner at one of her favorite restaurants and then with a strawberry cake at home.
On Friday, she celebrated with her friends. They dressed up like some of her favorite anime and book characters and went out for dinner--then to our place for ice cream sundaes and lots of laughs.
Here are some of my favorite pictures of Janae over the past few months:
painting (most of her wall is covered with art she's created),
sewing (she's doing alterations on her friends' prom dresses and also designing/sewing costumes for her school play),
and holding her very long cat.
Janae also sang "The Wizard and I" from Wicked at her school's coffee house tonight, as well as two other songs with friends (Janae singing "The Wizard and I").
Since she'll be graduating in a few months (and studying biology at university), we won't get to see very many more of these types of performances--and I'll really miss them!
I am so proud of her and so very grateful to be her mom.
