We have an official teenager in the house!
 |
| 13 and super mature |
Maggie continues to be a bright, hard-working kid with a huge love of music and her besties. She takes after Jamie and is a total night-owl. While she has occasional teenager moodiness, she's still a genuinely sweet person who loves to keep the peace. She's busy with guitar, viola, archery, robotics, soccer and drama club, still an avid Swifty, and continues working on her fantasy universe of characters and stories. My favorite times with Maggie are watching Gilmore Girls together, and car rides anywhere with just the two of us - best time to catch up on the "hot goss". She's doing great in school, and her teachers have nothing but good things to say about her. Maybe not her favorite subject, but she's a rockstar in math! She hates public speaking and being the center of attention - and gets super annoyed with us when we try to push her out of her shell (too bad, it's my job).
She got Starbucks breakfast as requested on her birthday, then we did dinner and cake with the grandparents!

My cousin Patty had a left-handed bow, and generously
gave it to Maggie so she can start shooting with her own bow! |
December is always such a busy time, so we didn't end up having her friend-party until a couple weeks later. We held it at her archery place, which was a new fun thing for most of her friends, then had a sleepover with her girlfriends afterward.
