There's now a teenager in my family

This young lady turned 13 today.  She and her parents brought ice cream cups from Baskin Robbins to celebrate her birthday, each one a different flavor.  We'd thought about doing dinner, but she really wanted Chick-fil-A and there isn't one near us.

When she got home from school, this was waiting for her in her bedroom.  It's hard to see, but there are flowers too.  It came from her father and his girlfriend.

We gave her some cash, which she'd requested, and a cookie decorating kit that a friend of a friend was selling as a fundraiser to help with her husband's medical bills. 

 We've had both of our vaccine shots with the only side effects being a sore arm (me) both times.  Devin and Janice have both had their first vaccine, too.

Wow, a teenager already! A very Happy Belated Birthday to dear Kyleigh. The cookies looks great.
I'm so glad you've had your shots, I'll get my second one at the end of the month.
