My AddiBell is 7!


When I was 14 I met my dear friend Cindy. She had two adorable little boys who I babysat often. I'll never forget the day Cindy told me she was expecting again. I was at girls camp ( the only time I ever went ) and I was so excited. She didn't want to find out the gender but I KNEW it was a girl. I even bet her that if it was a girl I got to name her. We were obsessed with finding the perfect name. Cindy was wanting Madison but I felt it was way too common for a not so common little girl. I remember Cindy calling me and telling me to come to the hospital. At this point I still didn't know the gender. I remember seeing Addi for for the first time. She was so beautiful. She had thick, black hair and had the most olive skin. Addison Isabella. The most beautiful name. I sometimes wish I had saved it for my daughter. Ha ha. I became Addi's nanny at the young age of 7 days. We were inseparable. I didn't know any other 16 year old with a car seat in their car. I learned so much from being her nanny. I had so much fun. Addi always looked like a superstar. She spent a lot of time at my home, Addison was just another member of our family. Addison is amazing! She really is too smart for her own good. She has the best imagination. Heavenly Father knew Addi was special and He knew she needed to be the only girl and the youngest. SPOILED! 

Happy Birthday Addison. I love you!
