I put together just a few pictures of Adalie in her 4th year. Each one brings up a memory that makes me smile. Learning to love water skiing especially with one hand behind her back, watching her little legs peddle her tiny bicycle as fast as they could making her head look like a helmeted bobble head, preschool days with Mommy and her never wanting to stop, playing in the sand for hours, blowing everyone away in her snow ski race, learning to ride her snowmobile, loving on her sister, surfing with Mommy, being the tiniest one on a soccer team where elbows might come in handy to get the ball, loving her chickie and not being afraid, joining in with the crowd at the Dodgers, finding fun in anything and everything!!
Adalie is such a gift to our family. Because her name was one Seth and I created, it can't be found in baby books and therefore does not yet have a meaning associated with it. But, Adalie herself is defining her own name and we are finding that process quite exciting to watch. To us, Adalie means... pure joy, uncontrollable and absolutely contagious belly laughs, sharp wit and quick humor, paradox, quiet sweetness and never being left behind!!
I was so lucky to have her all to myself for one last year. Such wonderful memories that are treasured in my heart!!
