Dyer Days: Adyson is 12

I say this all of the time, but time flies!! I am really trying to embrace it, but sometimes it is a little heartbreaking to see my children get closer to leaving my care. You would think that with 5 of them I wouldn't give that as much thought to that reality, but allowing time to go by and letting go of babies and childhood is a big trial of mine. Adyson is such a joy to watch grow up. She is so independent and responsible. She is such a high achiever and loves to be involved in everything! She is so helpful and such a great example to her siblings. A few of her favorite things are-Spicy meatball pasta, Reading-I cannot keep enough books around for her, running, soccer-she is great at both! She enjoys piano and trumpet and loves to be in leadership. She loves arts and crafts too and is great at drawing. We love her so much and treasure her influence on both her family and all those who know her. I took her out to get some make up for the first time and got her eyebrows waxed too. Big girl stuff! On her birthday we went with her brother, Grandpa and Grandma Dyer and her friend, Sydney Ogata's Family to do baptism's for the first time at the Portland Temple. It was so fun to have her so excited to go. It was her only request for her 12th birthday and she had been planning it for over a year.
