My
sixteenth birthday party will always be a treasured memory. My
school aide, Crystal, also known
as one of my best friends, threw a surprise party for me. She had
known that I wanted my own party, because my sister and I always
had to share a party because our birthdays are just 5 days apart.
I have to admit, she did a great job in keeping her little secret.
In order to get me there, she told me I had been invited to a
friend's anniversary party...and that I didn't need to bring a
gift because it was totally based on a "celebration of their
marriage", and no one was to bare gifts. And it was to be a
formal party, so I was given a dress to wear to the event.

This
was when I first came in. Everyone was singing the famous
"Happy
Birthday"
song.
I don't think
I need to put into words how surprised I was, because you can
clearly see! It's not the best pic of me, but even so, I wanted to
include it because I thought it was the perfect one to start this
page with.

I'm
reading a card. Can't you tell that I was really concentrating?
And look, I even
had someone to hold it for me! I was the Queen! Ahhh ok, I
was treated like one anyway. 0:)
Isn't my "rose halo" pretty? My Crystal
made it for me. It was perfect,
it had 16 roses. I loved it.
And yep, I still
have it.

This
is me smiling at the camera, before I unwrapped my gift Don't you
just love the tin?
It has angels on it.
This was the official day in which I started
my collection of angels. Because I had receive many.

I
was showing my English Teacher my birthday present from my
parents. Which was
a ring with a diamond cross. My very first diamond. Yes, I must
have been a good student
for her presence at my party.
(I also had 2 more of my teachers
there.) In the background are 2 of my friends from school.

This
was my English Teacher reading a poem she had written for me. She
had me smiling
with her cleverness.
I still have the poem, which is kept with my
other special memories.
The lady next to her was my Home Economics Teacher.

This
is "Miss Julia". She was my Occupational Therapist all
through my school
years. I have known her since I was 3. So she has been there
through it all. Always getting
me what I need! Those who know her, know exactly
what I mean! She doesn't play around when something needs to be
done! Love her for that! ...And
yes, that is my hand she's holding! haha she
finally gave it back! Ok, joking aside, I cut me out because I
didn't like my
side of the pic!
