Eryn Turns Twelve

Yesterday Eryn turned 12. She was lucky enough to have both of her grandparents join her for her birthday and her first visit to the Sydney Temple. Turning 12 also marks the opportunity to go to Young Womens ( girls youth group) where she can make new friends; learn fun skills; go camping; go to dances; and work on goals called 'Personal Progress' to help her grow in to a wonderful young woman.


When I was twelve I still remember my Dad writing a poem about 12 things about me. Well, Eryn - here is 12 things I love about you.
