hi, i'm aquilla!
Aquilla (Quill for short) is a typical 4-year-old boy who loves cars and trucks, jumping, climbing and being active. He also has a very sweet, soft heart, cares for his little cousins and gives the best hugs and kisses. Quill's the family snugglebug and is always ready for a cuddle! He's really smart and people often c
little cousins
Quill has lots of cousins, eight of them younger than himself. From day one he has been obsessed with the little ones. He was so excited to visit each new baby for the first time and gently pat their heads or sit next to them. Even now he's often seen giving them kisses or hugs, and helping them with a task or directing them away from danger. Quill enjoys talking about the things he will do with his brother or sister when they arrive, and from observing him with his little cousins, it's clear that he will be a devoted big brother.
swimming
Quill loves swimming and going to the pool in the summer. Some days he and Alex meet up with her sisters and their kids and enjoy a few hours together. Quill has so much fun jumping off the side into the water, dancing to the music and learning to swim and summersault. They enjoy their times during the pool breaks, snacking on some crackers or enjoying a melting ice pop in the sweltering sun. Quill looks forward to sharing those special times with a sibling, and is excited to help them jump into the deep end or push them around on a floaty. They know there are many more golden memories to be made.
imagination
The older Quill gets, the more his creative side comes out! He always seems to be working on a craft project that he can play with or give as a gift. He likes pretending that he's working different grown-up jobs, setting up all the pieces for his office and then making the things he doesn't already have. He loves explaining what he's making and each of the functions he imagines for it. Alex and Joel are constantly impressed by his imagination and ingenuity and look forward to seeing where it takes him in the future!
