Fifteen years ago my world got a little brighter, more complete, happier, MORE EXCITING. That was about 5 minutes before Miss Brinley Paige was born when the doctor finally decided to come in to give me an epidural. Hey, I always say better late than never! However, nothing prepared me for the excitement I'm experiencing now that she's a teenager. Let me just say one thing... valium. Just kidding, I would never need that raising my teenaged kids! gee whiz
This is Brinley pictured with Tom in May just minutes after she walked 22 miles. She ran most of the last mile. She has a LOT of energy. She has a LOT of endurance. She has a LOT of strength packed inside that little body of hers.
Here she is at 5,785 ft. in April after reaching the final stop at Angel's Landing at Zion National Park.
One must look cute and accessorize at all times, even when hiking.
It's very important to always be camera ready at all times.
I always wanted five daughters when I was a kid. Heavenly Father gave me three. I consider myself blessed beyond measure for this gift. My girls are precious jewels to me. Each one a different color, adding variety and depth in my life. Brinley is adored and cherished by us all. I look forward to what she will add and bring this world. Now if we can just make it through the drama that is teen life!
Happy birthday to my dearest Brinley! I love you so much and am so very thankful and proud of you!

Very cute! Happy birthday to Brinley! The picture of her with the towel on her head looks EXACTLY like Morgan. I had to do a double-take! Are you sure you didn't accidentally put Morgan in Brinley's post? :)
This is a great post, Mom. You're right - Brinley is certainly a ray of sunshine. Cutie!
That's so funny that Brooke said that about Brinley looking like Morgan because I thought the same thing when I saw that picture. All the pictures are so cute--Happy Birthday Brinley!!
I feel like I should remake that picture and see for myself. ;) Haha
Brinley, you look lovely. She's a great sister. Good post momma.
