She is the younger of my two daughters, my second child, and my awakening.
Nadalene is married to someone she loves (the rest of us love Charlton too). Like all of our kids, Nadalene is a total split between me and Wahid. I think she is most like me in her firmness and knowing what she knows.
Do you want to meet Nadalene? I’m sure you do.

She is the younger of my two daughters, my second child, and my awakening. Nadalene thank you for the privilege.
Happy Birthday Nadalene! Love Mom, Dad, Angelique, Nathan, Josephine, and Domenic.

And a happy anniversary to you too mum! x

A lovely daughter to have indeed. Happy Birthday Nadalene and oh happy day remembering mom. We never forget when we let them into this world. Whatever our children's lives may turn out to be, we are responsible for their being. Congratulations on a job well done mom!
Loved the read about your baby!
"Nadalene has the will of 12 horses, 3 black bears, 2 unicorns and 9 butterflies.."
A prim and proper little Missy.. and look what she has turned out! Apt for the job she was made for! Cant find another more suitable!

Happy Birthday, Nadalene!
I went back to read the post you linked, and oh, how glad I am that I did! What a beautiful woman she is. I'd love to see a family photo of all of you someday (unless your family objects). Nadalene sounds like a person I would like to meet. What a gift in the lives of all who know her. Blessings to all of you on this special day!
Happy Birthday Nadalene!! I just read Ces' post and I am sorry you aren't feeling well Renee :(
Please get well soon♥
Love, Darla
How sweet! Happy Birthday Nadalene!!
Oh you beast! The Australan Possum is neither an Opossum nor a Raccoon she postificates. It is however a beast that likes deep dark holes.
Yesterday (last possible day for burning before total bans) we were up there again, left late and totally exhausted, to be rung up again by the alarm people.... guess what? Yup, looks like its slid down the chimney again and Ah's goin' huntin'....Bagga! We have the bulldozer man coming in the morning and I have to cook for him too and drive for an hour just to evict our squatter again! and then for an other hour to get home.
Hapy Birthday to Nadalene! I so enjoyed reading your post about your daughter...do you have posts about your son and other daughter also? I'd love to read them too!!!!
Celebration day for the both of you!
What would we do without our girls? I had only a small taste of what's great in life before mine.
I believe Nadalene's tenacity was her gift from you.
Happy happy birthday to Nadalene, the Awakening! Oh, how I would love to be in your jazz-a-size class! I hope you have the most magnificent day ever.
Dearest Renee, please feel better soon. I've prepared a large mug of chicken soup for you and ten boxes of tissues. The soft, thick kind, too, not the cheapies. Only the best for you.
Happy Birthday, beloved daughter of Renee!
Happy Birthday Nadalene!!!!!!!
Many happy wishes and blessings for the next year.

Happy Birthday Nadalene! May it be the most fabulous one ever. Blessings of love, happiness, peace, and success.
And what a beautiful name Renee. In fact all your kids have gorgeous names.
I love Kelly's artworks so beautiful. Happy birthday Nadalene. Our daughters are so often the voice of reason in tough times. She sounds much like mine. It's her birthday on Friday. God my family planning sucked. So close to Christmas then another on the 11th! I knew you weren't feeling too good. Dose up. Take it easy. Big but gentle hugs!
Happy Birthday Nadalene! Like mother, like daughter?
(((HUGS)))
Happy Birthday Nadalene, your life feels like a true fairytale to me meaning it includes the dark and spooky forest all heros are forced to go through, what beautiful names you've given your children.
much love sweet renee...
Happy Birth day Nadalene.....and Renee

Oh fine! Snorty snort.....it is even summer and I am whining because it got down to 20 degrees celcius....being grateful for no snow then! Sheesh
Happy birthday to your Nadalene...and you my sweet princess...can you feel me...I'm sitting there next to you holding your hand..and we chat about our joint task for December...to be still...to relax...to breathe in strength...
What a different and beautiful name.
Thank God for our children.
Peace.
Renee, why didn't you let me know about today? No need to carry the can on your own. Thinking of you with crossed fingers, toes and any other body part that I can contort to do so. Chin up, it is going to be better than you think.
Happy Birthday to Nadalyn!! I read your post about her, what a wonderful woman! Beautiful post Renee, and I adore the artwork that acompanies your posts! Big love to you!
Oh Renee, your comments on my blog were so needed... Thank you thank you thank you. You are too sweet. Reading your short "about me" section, I have come to the conclusion that you are a very brave woman. I am very excited about being a new follower of your blog and I would love to read more posts from you. Please keep being so courageous, it is inspiring me to do the same.
Happy birthday, Nadalene. =]

Happy Birthday Nadalyn! Really glad you were born. You sound cool. In many ways I relate to the person you are. Perhaps that is a tiny reason why your mom and I have found our friendship together.

Dear Renee, I read last year's post and the two-minute read seemed like years of knowing Nadia. You make me fall in love with her like how you did when describing your siblings and other special people here in your blog.:)
How are you my dear? I hope you're feeling better especially that the holidays are just around the corner. About your special request, I will resize each artwork in the comings weeks. Why would I deprive my beautiful muses of the details anyway.:P Take good care of your self okay?
XOXO

Nadalene Happy Belated Birthday - and to you too Renee, for giving birth to such a beautiful daughter x
Happy Belated birthday to your Nadalene.
Your love for her is so beautifully expressed through your prose.
There is nothing like feeling loved that way. I am sure she loves you back the same way. And that is the most precious gift we can give each other as mothers and daughters.
