Lively and imaginative, Lily is a fun-loving girl! She is our monkey in the middle, but she may prefer lion in the middle. She’s always bringing a burst of energy and creativity wherever she goes. Loyal to her friends and passionate about all that she does. When she’s not dazzling on the gymnastics mat, she’s lost in the magical worlds of fairy tales and musicals, where her talent as a performer truly shines.

My buddy and Dad’s best friend is living his best life. This budding second baseman would spend all of his waking hours playing ball with his neighborhood buddies. And, this summer, he has! Theo loves routine and he’s pleased with a copy and paste type of day. However, watch out when he and Bella get the giggles because they’re unstoppable. Their sillies don’t cease until they say so. It is a true privilege to watch this young man tackle life and learn from his inquisitiveness, gentle nature and saint-like patience.

Ellie Rose continues to find her way to the top in all that she does from schoolwork to gymnastics. They told us she’d be our determined one with all of the complication in utero and they were right! She is wise beyond her years and always able to call out the elephant in the room with ease and clarity. If she doesn’t find her way into the Oval Office in 2053 we are hedging bets that she’ll be a compassionate leader wherever she lands.

Silly Lily Grace has a heart of gold and a contagious smile! She is always ready to lend a hand and loves to fold laundry, a divine gift in this household. She spends the majority of her day in a magical world of her own and the other half seeking sibling playmates. Lily remains our early bird, up by six and on a mission for her banana, raisin bread and sunny side egg. Her day is not done until she has a “night pride” mission with Uti the koala at her side.

This little firecracker is a pint sized package of energy, compassion and drive. She has the unique ability of seeing life from another’s shoes. She is already on a handful of mailing lists for climate change and environmental conservation. This girl is a natural advocate. She spots a problem, strategizes a solution and puts both her money and her mouth behind it. We are confident that her passion and discipline will leave this world changed. While this last year was a scary one for Rosie and our family, she rose again- like the Phoenix she is – with a fierceness!

Mr. Theo’s approach to life is a perfect example of love and logic. He takes each moment at a time, he is able to find peace amidst chaos, and his questions progress his learning independently. When he is not running the bases, sitting poolside with Dad or helping in the kitchen, you will find his nose in quality big Nate book. Theo’s creativity in both science and life bring a balance to our crew. His compassion is natural. His heart is such a large vessel that it is capable of bringing stability to the unstable. If you don’t have someone in your life that seems to just make it better, you need to find a Mr. Theo. His love for his girls is clear and his desire for his walk-on song one day to be chasing girls.

Bella is Bella. Our country girl is beautiful inside and out. She also has the rare ability to live life slowly when it is whizzing by. Nature stops her in her tracks; she rarely misses a beautiful sunrise and only bedtime keeps her from witnessing a serene sunset. Her photo gallery is the largest as she is passionate about capturing all of life’s moments. Everything from a creative pancake and sausage assembled into a silly face to giggling sisters to God’s paintbrush across the sky can be found on Bella’s camera. She is the sweetest in the bunch and her heart bleeds empathy. She sheds the most tears and laughs the loudest which, tells me she pays attention to the little things in life. My prayer for Bella is that her precious approach is never tainted by this world.
