Iyla Grace 12.0 is a Tween! Just look at this young lady: she wears makeup; she has attitude; she converses endlessly with her friends; is obessessed with Taylor ("Tay Tay") Swift and similiar artists.
This was the first Halloween I did not take Iyla Trick-or-Treating. It hurt my Papa heart to hear her say, "I'm sorry, Papa, but I want to go with my friends." She is growing up, and I must let her.
For Iyla's birthday, she will receive an iWatch so that we may communicate with her and know her location at all times ... She wanted a phone, but, we are not ready for that.
Art and Theater remain passions. Iyla is enrolled in Choir and Musical Theater at Middle School, and participates in a private theater conservatory on weekends.
I love her so much ... Happy Birthday, my Darling Iyla Grace!
