Amara started things off in her own way. She was born December 18, 2003. She was due on Christmas Day (Noelle), but we had her induced a week early. Amara was born at 4 pm weighing 7 lbs. She was very exact. She was delivered by 5 nurses (the dr. went Christmas shopping and missed it) with no pushing. The first thing everyone said when they saw h
er was what a pretty baby she was. Even teen boys said it too.
Even from a very early age Amara has been a care taker (she takes after her aunt). Amara and Jacob would play for hours in their own little world "twin talking". Amara was the only one who could understand him. Amara did everything early. She crawled early and walked well before she turned 1.
Now at 7 she thinks sh
e knows it all. She loves getting her hair done and she loves to braid any one's hair who will sit still. (Keira is a very good sport about it.) Last year she donated 12 inches braided hair to Locks of Love. She is currently growing out her hair to do it again. She wants me to do it with her this time. Amara loves babies and spends a good portion of her day holding Soren or "taking care of" Keira. She loves to do crafty things especially painting and has a wonderful imagination. Amara has taken dance and tumbling but has come to love playing soccer. 
She also enjoys being active outside - riding her bike, hiking (she just hiked to the Timp Caves with her aunt, Brenda), jumping on the trampoline, and just playing.
Amara is a wonderful student. She really loves to practice writing. Her favorite gifts are a cute notebook, pens, and a p
urse to carry them around in. It usually only takes her about 2 weeks to fill a notebook.
Like most girls, Amara loves playing dress up and princess. She always talks about her tea party princess party she had when she was 5. And asks when she can do it again.
When asked what she wants to be when she grows up she says a mom and a dancer, like Aunt Krista (she just watched Carli dance).
Amara is such a beautiful girl. She has always been very tall. She's had a hard time being a head taller than almost everyone in her class. She is my Amazon princess. (Definition of Amazon - A tall, beautiful woman) If it holds true that you're half your height at 2, she'll be at least 6 ft tall. I adore my Amazon and am so looking forward to seeing her grow and make decisions.
Amara has always been and will always be beautiful. She is amazing. Great pictures of her.
ReplyDeleteI love that Amara likes to care for the younger children. I can send Nicole to play with the kids and Amara will always look after her for me. She is such a sweetheart! And, a tall beautiful girl, which reminds me a lot of me. I was always bigger than all the other children in my class, so I know how that goes.
