Thirteen.

Today is your special day,

It’s all about you.

You’re finally a teen,

finally you’ll be seen.

You’re no longer a child,

That’s all in your past.

It’s time to grow up,

Wear your hair down,

And use make up.

Don’t let us down,

Don’t make us fools.

You’re old enough

To know better,

Old enough,

To follow the rules,

Happy Birthday

Dear Sister,

Happy Birthday

Young daughter,

You are now 13,

Welcome to teens

Beautiful, loved it

Finally, someone whos not complaining about how 'Girls these days use too much make-up and s**t'. It's what we want. It's not like we're being pressured into it (well, not from personal experience anyway) it's just what most girls are into. Getting ready to go somewhere, doing make-up and hair... it's like sex to me xD ok, maybe not the best comparison but you get what I mean.
Oh, and happy birthday to your sister :)

This is good, reminded me of those exciting years when we hit the teens, and the chance to be all grown up that feels long overdue at that age. Well penned.
