Emily turned 15 the other day. As always, the years go by FAST and this one wasn’t any different. I wish we could slow time down.

Josh can no longer be referred to as the girls’ “little brother.”  Amanda now officially looks UP to her little brother 🙂 And, Josh is rubbing it in just a little bit (LOL).  Notice the pinched fingers!
