When wtfpotatoes was born, fifteen years ago today, they didn't know how long she would live. I force her to listen every year to the story of how worried we all were, and how relieved I was to get to meet her, six months later. Now she's a bright, healthy, creative, introspective, tolerant, loyal, and did I mention bright teenager and a terror to all around her (kidding, kidding, sort of). She supports her gay friends by being a member of her school's gay-straight alliance, against her mother's wishes. She creates art and gives it away to bring her friends and family joy. And she tells me she loves and misses me every day.

I love you, wtfpotatoes. Happy, happy birthday, and I can't wait to see you on Friday!

(Note: She also made the icon I'm posting this with.)

I noticed on her user profile that she lives where I started my school career - Chula Vista. I'm sure it has changed a lot since I was there, too many years ago to count!

She would probably get along very well with my oldest who I would describe using many of the words you used to describe wtfpotatoes
