Nomination by Shelby Walters: Adalyn is such a sweet, hardworking, and amazing kid! She maintains good grades, dances 5 days a week, and is an awesome big sister to her 4 siblings. In addition to being her mom, I have had the opportunity to be Adalyn’s art teacher at school. On the playground, she is the kid who will comfort a crying classmate, or befriend someone she sees sitting alone. She approaches every situation with kindness and always has a smile on her face. What I admire most about Adalyn is her ability to overcome. When she was just 10 years old, she lost her one month old baby sister, Evelyn, due to a heart defect. After Evelyn’s passing, Adalyn told me that every time she steps on stage, she dances for her sister in heaven because she knows Evelyn will never get the chance to dance. I am just in awe at her perseverance.
