Annaliese is 9!

 Nine...how in the world is she nine years old already? I still very clearly remember heading home from the hospital with her, thinking that it was a bit crazy that they thought we knew enough to take care of such a tiny human! And now here we are, and she is such an incredible girl! 


She loves going to school, reading, and playing games. She is thoughtful and smart. As she has grown, she has become more reflective and less talkative. She will spend hours sitting in a chair with a good book and is constantly singing to herself. Annaliese likes to play soccer and basketball and loves a good park date with her friends! 

Annaliese has a few good girlfriends at school and she had eagerly planned her birthday party, including both indoor and outdoor options, but I with the increasing number of Covid cases and a request from school to me mindful of how our actions affect the community at large, we decided it was best not to have a party this year. Annaliese very graciously accepted this and we did a small party at home, just with Grandpa and Grandma (since we live with them!) 





We made a gluten free-dairy free cake this year so Dad could enjoy it too!
