When I turned 16, I was finally allowed to date. For a constantly boy crazy girl, I felt like sixteen would never come and when it did, I took full advantage of it! I dated some pretty nice guys, but one guy, who ended up becoming my boyfriend for a few years, taught me more [...]
Treasures
Kelly has become very attached to a little frog sticker and a ring. Over the past week she has been taking these two items with her everywhere.

Patriotism
