Hadley's 13!
We have a teenager in the house! This year was a lot different as we are isolated and can't celebrate with extended family or friends.
So, Hadley decorated her cake with just a little help from me. She made some beautiful flowers and added some little cat toys that I found a few weeks back. She did a fantastic job!
Hadley had plans to celebrate by going snow tubing before all the isolation COVID19 stuff happened but I think we may do a simple playdate as soon as this is over with her best friend Rachel. The girls really do miss each other. They call each other every few days and talk on the phone which Hadley has never really done with a friend before. Rachel and Hadley have skated together every week since September and were used to seeing each other twice a week. Then COVID19.
What I have notice about having a teen in the house is that she wants to stay up later and she wants more of her own time. Lately she is trying out just chilling on the spare bed with a book or her device. She is also really starting to get into music. She is starting to work on some playlists with songs I have never heard before but I like, so that is cool. Amongst other things for her birthday she got the new Just Dance game for the Switch and she has been dancing up a storm. Full sweat! I think this may be just the exercise we all need!
I am thankful and blessed to be this girls mom. Every year she teaches me to change, learn and grow.
13 will be no different. I love her! I can't wait to see what this year brings!
While I don't have the actual height and weight for her as I haven't been to a doctor and don't have plans to any time soon, here is what I do know. I believe she is around 5'2" which is 157 cm, which means she is up 9 cm from last year. (To be confirmed). About one inch shorter than me. She is wearing women's size small clothing with a few items still in kids size 16, and size 8 shoes. We share shoes now.
Her favourite food is steak! She still loves cat everything!
