Nicole

Nicole is an amazing little girl and a wonderful addition to our family. From birth, Nicole has been happy, laughing and silly. She is 6 years old, and loves 1st grade and playing with friends.

Nicole is very creative. Her arts and craft supplies are all over the table while she is in the middle of creating something. She uses playdough, paints, crayons, markers, colored pencils, tissue paper, tape and yarn to make things. She likes to draw and make cards for friends. She has made a dress completely out of tissue paper and tape; and a string of “Christmas Lights” made out of paper she colored, taped in a tube shape and strung on yarn then hung on her bed. Her signs and pictures are hanging all over the house. She is constantly creating new wonderful things. She recently met her birthmother through Skype on the computer. She now loves to make crafts for her and send them to her.

She is tall for her age, very athletic and imaginative. Besides that fact that she grows out of clothes quickly, she is very active, always with something going on. She loves horses! Everywhere she goes, she gallops like a horse. She rides a swim noodle around the house like a horse and fer favorite toys are barbies and horses and she uses them constantly to create some sort of magical scene. We decided we better get her into horse riding lessons to give her an opportunity to ride horses. She is quite enjoying the lessons. But her favorite activity is to play with Daddy. She loves to wrestle with him, or get him to give her piggy back rides.

Nicole’s creativity and sparkling personality brighten our lives every day!
