September 28....the best day of 2003!

Happy SWEET SIXTEEN Bryna Mae Payne. My spunky, fun, talented, beautiful girl. Almost the tallest Payne, next to Neil and maybe Cal. The girl who has always sung her way through the day....living life in a musical and making ours one too. Neil never understood musicals....he would say, "Who breaks out into song and dance randomly like that?" And then we had you, and now he totally gets it. Definitely the messiest, most unorganized Payne; but also the most carefree and one who is always up for adventure. You are hard working, dedicated and passionate about the things you love. I am so thankful for your kindness, your feistiness, your goodness. I am so thankful for your genuine love and gratitude. I am so thankful for keeping us on our toes, getting us out of the house and pushing outside our comfort zones. I am so thankful for the beauty you create with music and just by being you. I could listen to you sing all day long! I adore you B-Nut....now let's get to driving really soon, because you're also the busiest!
