12-years-old

 

Here we are again, another year has gone by and Hallee is 12.  Our last child in is her last year before she becomes a teenager.  I have a hard time wrapping my mind around that.  Hallee definitely has the teenage hormones and emotions going on.  Her moods are up and down and change quickly.  

She is still so sweet.  She is so good at being interested in what others are doing and how others are feeling. She always asks me how I'm doing and if I slept well.  She writes the best notes and cards. She sees the best in everyone and never says mean things about anyone.

Hallee is so organized.  She is always cleaning and organizing her room. She remembers everything and I can always count on her if I ask her to do something.

Hallee loves to hang out with Trinity and Tessa.  She gets social anxiety if she isn't with them.  Going to young women's each week is hard for her. She always has fun when she gets there, but she has a lot of anxiety leading up to it.  It's hard because her anxiety gives her a stomach ache so she is always worried she will throw up.  Poor girl. She keeps pushing herself though and she is doing great. She was so anxious about going to a kayaking activity, but she did it anyway and loved it.

Hallee is so fun. She has a great sense of humor and loves to laugh.  She loves bath and body works and any type of skin care.  She knows more about skin care and make up than I do.  

She loves making bracelets.  She has made hundreds.  She always does cute things with her hair and loves to put beads or string in her hair. 

She looks so grown up lately. She loves to sing and dance. She is just the best and we love her so much. 

Hallee's pictures reminded me of Caitlyn.  I had to do a side by side to show how much they look alike.
