Happy 16th Birthday Alexis
You have grown into such a beautiful young woman. I am excited to see all the great things in your future. If I can give you any words of wisdom, I will tell you this
Do not worry about what others think. You don't see most of them after graduation.
You don't have to know what you want to do with your life right away.
Save, save, save, and don't go into debt.
Experience life now, travel if you want to; it gets harder to do later.
Never regret anything, you can't redo it. Learn from it and move on.
Stay close to your family.
Life is short, so have fun.
Reaching 16 is a milestone,
a happy point in life.
You've set your personality
and your tolerance for strife.
By now you know right from wrong
and how to influence friends.
It’s time to look down the road
at forks and around the bends.
The road ahead is wonderful,
some choices will be clear.
Your path depends on bravery
to push aside the fear.
When you chose this way or that,
slow choices or if snappy,
make the choices best for you,
the ones that make you happy.
by Michael Charles Messineo
We love you Alexis.
