Madelyn is my first born. She is a six year old sweetheart, full of spunk and attitude. If you don't have the pleasure of knowing her, I will tell you some things about her. If you do know her, maybe you will still learn something new. Here are 10 of my favorite things about Madi:1. Her love language is physical touch. She is a hugger, but not a kisser. She has never wanted to be kissed around or on the lips. If you are lucky enough to kiss her, you do it on top of her head. She is almost always glued to my hip these days.
2. She is a pleaser. She wants everyone to be proud of her. She wants to do things to make me happy. She loves it when adults are happy with her.
3. She is tender hearted. She hates to think that she has hurt someone. She cries when her sister cries. She is empathetic to others.
4. She loves the Lord. When she talks about her best friend, she means Jesus. She likes Bible school songs. She has memorized about 12 Bible verses. And, she learns a new one each week.
5. She is still a little girl. She is innocent and pure. She loves things that others her age find babyish, such as Sesame Street, nursery rhymes, a bicycle with training wheels, and being rocked to sleep sometimes. This makes me happy because I don't want her to grow up too fast.
6. She has a bit of spunk and sass. She will mouth off sometimes, but it is usually in good humor. She will tell her dad "I will punch you in the face." She isn't scared to share her opinion or advocate for herself. This has taken some time as she used to be very, very shy.
7. She is a girly girl. She doesn't get dirty. She isn't too wild. She loves nail polish and make up. She loves skirts and dresses. She likes dress up clothes, princess crowns, lip gloss, and purses.
8. Although this drives me crazy sometimes, it is still a part of who Madi is....She is very quirky with her clothes. She doesn't ever wear jeans. She doesn't like bumps in her socks. She can't have a tag in her clothes. And, this is just to name a few.
9. She loves art projects. From markers to pixos to stickers to ceramics. She loves all things creative and artistic. She is proud of her projects, and she hangs them all over the house for everyone to see.
10. She has a good sense of humor. She loves wise cracks. She makes up silly knock knock jokes. You can make her laugh at the drop of a hat. She always wants to hide and jump out to scare you. She is cheerful and happy, and she is ready to share that with the world around her.
