Yes, you are perfect!
That's a great wieght!
Have you gone thru your 3-5 inch growth spurt?
If you are worried about your wieght, and health....
Make sure you cut out sugar drinks and soda from your diet.
Eat 5-8 fruits and/or veggies a day.
Don't eat after 7 pm
Always have the same breakfast and lunch.
Eat 3 meals a day, 2 snacks.
And make sure you walk or do some physical activity for 20-30 minutes a day to get your heart rate up.
It's about a healthy lifestyle, not your wieght.
YOU are NOT fat!!

To know for sure, you should check your Body Mass Index, or BMI. It takes proportions into account, but may not be applicable if your body is not fully developed and adjusted yet- it shouldn't be, at thirteen.
To find your BMI:
