Mabel means lovable

When we real­ized that the name “Mabel” meant lov­able, it seemed very sweet. Only it turns out, it’s very accu­rate. Mabel has the sweet­est nature about her; she always wants to share what she has. With all her Hal­loween treats, which isn’t much with her aller­gies, she shares every. sin­gle. piece with me *and* David. If it’s a Kit-Kat, she’ll break it in half, break each piece in half, and sys­tem­at­i­cal­ly divide it up. No mat­ter what the can­dy or treat, she always breaks it in half and brings it to us. We only accept some of the time (to show our grat­i­tude), but she always offers. As I write this, there is a col­lec­tion of treats on my desk, that she left “for when you want a treat.” that she had gath­ered from her own bag. She real­ly is lovable.

    That’s pret­ty cool she’s devel­oped that shar­ing atti­tude as an only child. You’ve prob­a­bly taught her well.
