Looking Back at Bella | 2022-2023

Published on by onesource4wellnessLeave a comment

Sweet Bella Bean continues to walk to the beat of her own drum. She remains our fearless fashionista who can make any pattern or color scheme work. Her pace of life is about as fast as the clouds passing by. Her cadence paired with her empathy is a divine recipe. She has a sixth sense about noticing God’s handiwork from natural anomalies to a water color sunset. Bella is also the first to know who needs a hug. Her big hugs squeeze the hardship right out of you, leaving room for all her love she has to share.

Now, a look back at Bella’s last year!

Looking Back at Theo | 2022-2023

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.

Looking Back at Lily | 2022-2023

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.

Looking Back at Kali | 2022-2023

Published on by onesource4wellness2 Comments

From her first monkey screech, we knew this girl had to be heard. K is an astute observer and is learning daily the power she holds with her tongue. While impulses are her kryptonite, her sky blue eyes are ours. She has learned at her young age how to put on a social mask. However, Her feelings can’t be hidden because she wears them on her sleeve. She may be the toughest of our nuts to crack, but when you do you find the purest joy and love.

Now, let’s look back at Kali over the last year…

Looking Back at Ellie (2022)

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.

Looking Back at Bella (2022)

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.

This year we’re working our way from the inside out! Starting with lucky Lily, Quint #3.

You only live once. We knew it from an early age that Lily would be our little evil Knievel. She proved it this year bye launching herself off of a bunk bed. A nasty sprain and fracture took her summer but didn’t touch her spirit. Lily has a way of bringing fun to any situation. She never lets her nerves get in the way of making a new friend and purposely seeks out those sitting alone to share her joy. She is likely the chattiest – her teachers would agree- but this is how she feels her love tank each and every day. Whether you walk on two legs or four, everyone has a special place in Lily’s heart.

Looking Back at E. Rosie (2019-2020)

Published on by onesource4wellnessLeave a comment

Ellie, who is fondly called Rosie by mom and dad, is proving to be Mom’s mini-me. It is not uncommon for us to say the same things at the sametime and for our mannerisms to be eerily similar. While Ellie is the “baby” of the bunch, her BIG personality hides it well. She easily identifies her feelings and is able to articulate her emotions and her logic in a way that surpasses her years.

This little firecracker LOVES to move and is happiest when she is upside down doing cartwheels, round-offs, backbends or whatever new act is assigned in tumbling and cheer. Our Rosie is the most organized and determined quint and she will be sure you know it. She loves to lend a hand, especially when it involves outdoor chores, caring for the chickens, meal prep or sorting, however the result will almost always be in rainbow order.
