About Nellie's personality

Nellie is wildly self-aware. She gives herself affirmations mid-challenge - "I can do it!" - and narrates her art projects with "This is turning out great!" She believes being scared is just a chance to be brave, and calls herself a tough cookie when she falls and dusts off. She's equally tender... she'll curl up close and sigh "I love snuggling with you." She loves a good nickname (Nellie Noodle Noggin, currently) and her favorite color is "white with nothing on it." She contains multitudes.

What are Nellie's favorite things to do?

Nellie's favorite way to spend a day is MOVING. She's obsessed with vehicles - trucks, airplanes, steam rollers, excavators. She knows which big machines are right for the job. She lives for the outdoors - you'll find her swinging, climbing, digging in the dirt, and cutting the grass (meticulously... with her safety scissors). Yesterday, she told me she likes to "listen to Taylor Swift and eat [her] snacks" to relax. Relatable!

What would your family do with $25,000?

We'd build the backyard Nellie deserves: room to dig, climb, explore, and be exactly who she is outdoors. And we'd take her flying. She lives for the moment the wheels leave the ground. We want to show her the world while she still believes every corner of it was made just for her.
