7/6/12
Name: Adelaide, known as Addi (or, occasionally, Addi-bug)
Hair: Short, thick, and lustrous brown
Eyes: Creek-colored, like a good many of her other McLeod-stock relatives.
Interests:
Reading - six Nancy Drew books last week
Cooking - makes a good chocolate chip cookie
Shopping - recently saved up and bought a McLeod-tartan tam from Scotland
Creating elaborate superstitions - "I can't wear that shirt! It has thirteen patterns on it!"
Climbing trees - she'd sleep in one if she could
Suffering - if circumstances don't allow her to suffer, she'll choose to believe the circumstances are different."You let him play with my music box! Now I'll ALWAYS have to let ANYBODY play with ALL MY STUFF!"
Loud, bangy music - on repeat, no less.
Notes: Routinely amazes her family with her varied and random knowledge base. Is willing to be in charge, but doesn't seek it out. Her love of loud music is at variance with her dislike of large gatherings and loud conversations. Enjoyable conversationalist.
Recommendation: Upgrade to Next Age Level, with honors.
Happy eleventh birthday to Addi! We love you!

Actully, that superstition's been around for centuries.

Thirteen, yes. You tend to take the basic idea and run with it, however.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, precious Addi.
I've been looking forward to your mom's annual update on you, and enjoyed it as much as always.
Grandpa and I take delight in the interesting, unique, gifted and surprise-filled sweetheart that is you.
Enjoy being 11. You do indeed pass with honors!
XOXOXO Nana
Happy Birthday! Have a great day!
Loud music: introvert
Loud gatherings: extrovert
Draw your own conclusions.
(Not that I would know *anything* about liking loud music and hating loud groups of people...)
Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday! That tam sounds wicked cool.
As always, you did a super job of summing up Addie in a cute and entertaining way. Happy Birthday to her!

And my comment appears nowhere. I hate trying to post a comment on your blog. I said that I especially agree with the assessment that Addi is a good conversationalist, and that I wish she were here to converse with Mam.
Addi - happy birthday, precious girl! Aunt Lindsay has always been infatuated w/ the Macleod tartan as well. Love the brightness of it!
Oh my GOODNESS, she looks so much like you! :)
