I had written 4 years ago on my personal blog.

Thought I’d share it today as a

“Blast from the Past”

Some things have changed in 4 years. Well, actually a lot of things have changed!

but…

Natalie is still the same girl I described here.

So..

Happy Happy 23rd Birthday Girl!

I love this girl! She really is like a daughter to me 🙂 and today, oops yesterday cuz it is after midnight was her 19th birthesday!! Natalie will love that I am up at 1 am writing this cuz we can sometimes both be insomniacs.

Nat and brit have been friends since 9th grade and they were pommies together all through high school. That means that they spent MUCHO time together! That means that they shared BAJILLION’s of secrets with each other and of course with me too! Cuz Nat caught on early that I was a COOL mom like that 🙂 hahah

I appreciate Natalie because she has not only been a good friend to my daughter, but she also treats me well. I love teenagers. Really! Especially ones who TALK to me and share a little of their life with me. That would be Nat!!

OK so in honor of her 19 years, I will share 19 facts and feelings I have about Natalie the GREAT…

.
1. We have more pictures on our computer of Natalie than any other friend of Brits. Waaayyyyyyy more. and that is A LOT a lot A LOT of pictures!!

.
2. Nat will come to see me even if Brit isn’t around. I know she will hang with me when I soon become an empty nester old lady boo.

.
3. Nat just makes me feel SPECIAL and IMPORTANT.

4. She accepts advice from me.

.
5. We text funny things to each other.

.
6. She calls me MoM, adopted mommy, Jilly, and other fun stuff 🙂

7. She has an amazing sense of humor! We LAUGH a lot hahah! She makes everyone laugh and she is quick with her humor!

8. She is clever, witty, and sometimes sarcastic which I love!

I’m trusting you Natalie Morgan to keep our secrets!

10. She joined the church in August and I have seen AMAZING changes in her. She’s like soooo spiritual and stuff!!

12. She “GETS” me like no other 19 year old.

13. We have fun sharing Edward stories and secrets! YOU know what i am talking about girl. (wink wink)

14. She has shared soo many experiences (fun, scary, silly, wicked, almost naughty, insightful, etc… etc…) with Brit that all teenage girls must encounter to be normal and create lasting memories.

15. She is amazingly talented! Smarty pants she is! Dancer, writer, artist. She would make an awesome politician, doctor (plastic surgeon) or lawyer. What to do what to do! Natalie could be any of those things professionally!

16. She likes the way I do things, such as baking, “packaging” stuff, throwing parties, and computer fun.
