Our Doc.  He was coming off 5 straight days at the hospital and was with us from start to finish.

Anela's 4th Year Review

Date: January 5, 2011 -  My sweet pea is 4 years old.  Angela and I have so loved watching Anela's personality blossom this year.  She is typically the source of fun and laughter in the Ottley home.  I envy her ability to make any situation light and playful -- an ability which will pay great dividends throughout her life. 

Anela is beautiful, she is mischievous, she is meticulous, she is dramatic, she is silly, she is a girly-girl but knows how to push back, she is a singer, she is a dancer, she literally never wants to grow up, she considers her older brother her best friend, she loves to play with others but can play by herself for hours, she loves to cuddle, she loves anything pink, she can get her daddy to do about anything.  Anela is simply an angel.
