Our Original Little Chick Turns Four

Of our group of college buddies, or ‘hens’ as we affectionately call ourselves, baby Adickes was our first little ‘chick.’ And she turned FOUR last weekend. Where did the time go? She is such a sweet, polite, and cuddly little girl, and we have loved every minute of watching her grow into a little lady. We had a great time celebrating in the pool at Lake Caroline on Saturday and swimming like little fishies. Happy 4th birthday, Adickes!
