I don't think she'll be as tall as her sister though. I think the older sister will be 5'6" or 5'7" when she is done growing. The younger one has a smaller frame and has always been smaller than her sister at the same age. We'll see though.
I have to wrap their presents, except the ones that are either hopefully coming tomorrow or that I know are coming late. I'm sad about that but shipping takes time. At least I have something physical for each of them until the rest of their things arrive. Gifts now are so different than a few years ago when they wanted toys.

I'm 5'3" and Daughter is only twelve and already taller than me! Lol. Husband and Daughter look like giants next to me. Wish I could post a pic. It would be funny. 😁 My nephew and niece are both short though, taking more after their mom and grandma.
Yeah. Present shopping is definitely different now compared to when Daughter just wanted toys. Now it's harder! I mean, she has books, her phone, her laptop... what more does the kid need? This year we're taking her to a concert of a band she really likes since she was upset that Husband and I are going to so many without her, but she was still like, "I'm getting presents, right?" Shyt! I don't know what to get the kid! She's a Tom boy and hates clothes and all things girly. Ugh. We'll figure something out.

I hope your daughter feels better! I hope she isn't sick again. That's the worst. Does she have food poisoning maybe?
