13-year old Noel considers herself a happy teenager.
She likes many things, including cooking, horseback riding and drawing.
But for Noel, happily ever after won’t be complete until she has a family to call her own.
Joy Hollowell recently caught up with the teenager at Dino’s Pizza in Brewer.
==========
“And what is your name?
Noel? That’s a pretty cool name. Is that a Christmas name?
Yeah, I’m a Christmas Eve baby.
You’re a Christmas Eve baby, cool. So how old are you?
13? You know that’s exactly how old I was when I was 13.”
Magician Danny Baker was full of one liners and double takes at Dino’s Pizza in Brewer recently. he entertained Noel and her two younger brothers, Jeff and Jonathan, with all kinds of tricks, including this one.
“A bag of beads, my little magic wand.
Put the beads in the bowl
Magic wand and beads, here we go.
This is when we do the shake (everyone starts shaking)
Say eenie, meenie, chilli beenie. I’ve watched too much Bullwinkle.
(Baker pulls necklance out of bowl and gives to Noel)”
Noel says she likes dressing up in jewelry and other girly things. She also enjoys art, especially scrapbooking.
“I’m very creative and I love to draw.”
And, she also loves to bake, especially desserts.
“I like to cook special little treats for parties and stuff.
Noel tells me she enjoys making other people happy, because that’s how she feels most of the time.
“I love to smile.”
Noel says Christianity is an important aspect in her life, and she’d like to find a family that supports that.
“I’d like to have a little sister, but if that’s not possible, that’s OK.”
She’d also like to stay in contact with her two biological siblings. Noel says she’d love two parents or just one, as long as she has a family to call her own.
“I think it’s important for everyone to have a family. Everyone, because it’s not right for them not to.”
