HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Three years ago today, this little girl stormed into our life. At three months old she was louder than the other three of us put together. She is busy, wiggly, goofy, and sweet. This year she is getting pet frogs for her birthday!

She cannot get enough physical touch. In her first weeks of life, she would go on three hour nursing binges. Even now she presses her face against our own or raises our shirt to put her cheek on our stomaches. Her affection is unmatched.

She LOVES to help Lee Ann cook - such that she cries on the nights when we have chicken nuggets or some other quick meal. Once Lee Ann starts to cook, Adeline will drag a chair to the kitchen counter and get to work.

She is the first to apologize, but she is also the first to need to. She is the sweetest little bull-in-a-china-closet God ever made.

She literally believes that it is her job in life to keep our whole family laughing, which she has consistently done for the past three years.





You mean so much to us, Adeline. Happy birthday sweet girl.
