It is breathtaking to see Effie leap from 7 or so to suddenly 13, and it feels a bit like that is what has happened, that she was yesterday so small and today a teenager. I admit to getting a bit choked up when suddenly I saw her appear as she undoubtedly is now, but since I haven't seen her myself, in the flesh, since she looked much more like she did in the shots just before, I am in a sort of denial about it. It was a swirl of sadness and joy to see her, so tall, so poised, so much a young adult. And I suppose this is what it is to be thirteen. I hope the birthday is a beautiful one, and that her life as a teenager holds some of tenderness and thoughtfulness that fills this video.
So much love to all of you on this very special day. Hugs and kisses, Rachel
