Receive Text UpdatesHadley loves animals, flowers, rocks, and being outside wherever she can explore. She’s naturally curious and observant, always stopping to look at bugs, plants, and birds. She's happiest outside, whether it's in the mountains, near a lake, by the ocean, or just our neighborhood park. Wherever she is, she turns it into an adventure and wants to learn more about the world around her.
It's really hard to pick just one, but Hadley’s favorite animal is a deer. Two years ago, she even asked Santa for one for Christmas. She sees them often at her grandparents’ house in Virginia and loves how peaceful and sweet they are, especially the little fawns.
Any trail or body of water she can find, Hadley loves to hike and swim. But her favorite outdoor activity is finding rocks; she’s always on the lookout for interesting ones along the way.
