...a wonderful baby girl named Nicole Renae Cleaver was born to us.
We took this picture of her next to Melissa's doll when we brought her home from the hospital.
Then we took a picture of her next to her 4 year old sister Melissa. Children grow a lot in four years.
This was the dress we had her blessed in.
19 months later, little brother Ryan came on the scene and most of the time Nicole was loving and nurturing to him. She use to like to drink her bottle and stroke his head.
Nicole liked to be a big girl like Mommy and put on a little make up in the morning.
Nicole was a good little helper. Here she is helping me do laundry.
She was full of energy and joy!
Here is a glamor shot of her wearing sunglasses.
Oops! A little too small to be taking a bath in.
Nicole loved cats. She hauled this little cat "Midnight" all over the house with her.
Nicole tried Ryan out as a rocking horse. It didn't quite work.
She took such delight in the simplest things.
Dressed up as a fairy for Halloween. She loved the pink boots.
Her first day of school. It's hard to believe she will be graduating from college in two months!
Having fun playing T-Ball.
In 6th and 7th grade she gave soccer a try.
A picture before she goes to a ninth grade dance.
Showing off her muscles at the Grand Canyon.
We have years of pictures and wonderful memories of Nicole and these are just a few. We are so thankful she was sent to her home. We love you Nicole and we are glad we will have you with us forever.
