"SWEET SIXTEEN"

Sunday, May 13, 2012
Would be the correct words to describe:
MEGHAN ANNE ZINN
5-13-12

So I ask myself how can this tiny red headed little girl be SWEET SIXTEEN? 
and of course there are NO ANSWERS to that question.
(I am still at my mother's and not home now so I have no baby pictures of this "sweet" beautiful grandchild)
Meghan was the one who changed my name to :"Grandma Barb" and I loved what that change brought into my life!
Meghan is "different" (and I mean different in a nice kind of way) from a lot of 16 year olds....
she is one of the most level headed, kind, caring, and thoughtful 16 year olds I know (and that is not because I am her grandmother!)
Meghan loves her family!  that is not only her immediate family of her parents and brother but extended family, aunts, uncles, cousins, and I am sure even her friends!
It has been a difficult and challenging week as I sit here at my mother's home having just buried my sister.  I had planned on going to Meghan's for her "Sweet Sixteen" celebration but it became necessary for me to stay at my mother.  They just brought the party to us and we could all share in this special year of Meghan's
I picked some random pictures that I hope depict the the qualities of Meghan!

loves sharing time with family!

I had so much fun scrapbooking with Meghan

Bowling with Meghan
celebration of one of Meghan's birthday at my house
This was the party at my house and Meghan wanted a flower cake and her mother came through for her!
(way to go Tamara)
I was able to attend a middle school concert for Meghan
she is so talented in the area of music and how
fun it was to be able to see her concert.
I am grateful they are close enough to visit often but sad
it is too far to see all of their school events!
a bicycle wipe out but Meghan is one tough girl
Meghan is the oldest Grandchild but no others close in age
She is more than a cousin to these younger siblings....
she is someone they
look up to
and can have as a wonderful role model

THANK YOU MEGHAN for bringing your Sweet Sixteen Party to ME

There is no doubt that Meghan Anne Zinn will succeed in life whatever course or path she chooses.  She has the foundation that will take her forth to blaze a trail in any direction she so chooses.
I LOVE YOU MEGHAN
I LOVE that YOU were the one who changed my title to Grandma Barb
It is always a joy to be in your presence and may there be many more celebrations of your life
