Twelve years ago today, our long held dream came true and we were blessed with another little girl after a run of 3 spectacular boys.
Arielle is a princess, in the good sense of the word. We named her after her great grandmother and grandmothers... Mabel Wilda didn't appeal to us but we discovered the name Arielle means lioness of God; and THAT describes Mabel Wilda. JaNae is a form of Jean/Janice (her grandmothers names).
Arielle has been a joy to raise. She loves to read and is a huge help with the youngers. Arielle is sandwiched between five brothers and provides a sweet counter balance in our now testosterone laden family. ::snort::
Happy Birthday, sweetie. We love you.
{I'll post a graduation thought or two AFTER the graduation because I'll know what we said then. ::snort:: }
Choosing Joy!
