Born three weeks early, you were a tiny, bundle of joy wrapped up in pink and delivered just in time for my 24th birthday. You were adored by everyone who met you, especially your big brother, Ethan. He would sing to you, talk to you, bring you toys to play with, and was constantly touching your head, hands, or feet.
Here you are precious girl, just a few weeks old. This is the outfit your brother came home from the hospital in. You are swimming in it, but you still look cute as a button!
Here you are with your Great Grandpa McClain, Ponca. He loved you so much, Isabelle.
And here you are at two months old with your big brother. This is how we often found him...curled up next to you. You were the best of friends.
As you grew, we realized that you were fiercly independant, determined, and tough enough to hold your own. 
You still loved your big brother and he loved you...
You love spending time with all of your family,
Trip to Nicaragua with Mimi
Carving pumpkins with Pappy and Mimi
Fifth birthday party with Samantha
Early Thanksgiving get together 2009 with McCarty family and Uncle Sam and Samantha
You love riding the tractor with Pappy,
and doing things with your hands like playing Legos with Ethan or doing crafts...
Once your little sister came along, you loved her right away...
there were some tough times for you trying to figure out who your best buddy was...
It seems to have all worked out and you all three love each other to pieces...
You are a friend to all, wherever you go...
from Costa Rica...
to Montana...
Jesus in you shines through...
We love you so much, Izzy. There is no one else like you and you are perfect for our family...
We hope and pray your day was super special...because you are super special to us. We love you and are so thankful God gave you to us. You are still very determined, strong-willed, and independant. And we see God growing you and using those characteristics to bring Him glory. We see your kind heart, your compassion, and your love for others, and it spurs us on to be more like that. We see that you are often the peacemaker amongst your friends. We see that you often sacrifice your desires to please the group. We see that and we know that all off that is because you have Jesus living inside of you and HE guides your actions. we love you for that. You struggle with different things, you get overwhelmed, and sometimes you act out in anger or break down in tears...and don't know why. We understand that, because it happens to us too. We are all learning together how to be more like Jesus, but you, Isabelle Adair, bring great joy to us and keep us pressing on.
We love you so much!
Happy birthday!
