Here are 7 things that you might not know about her.  <\/p>\n<p>1.  My parents always intended to name me Zion.  When my mom went into labor and she &#038; my dad still disagreed about whether to spell it with an X or a Z, they started looking at other names.  If I&#8217;d been born on July 4th I would have been named Liberty.  Instead I was born on July 6th and they chose Serenity Margaret.  Margaret was my great grandmother&#8217;s name and my grandmother&#8217;s middle name.  I&#8217;ve lived up to the name Serenity.  \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>2.  I was born at home in the water, and weighed 9 lbs 11 oz.<\/p>\n<p>3.  I have 4 older sisters and 3 older brothers.  My 3 yr old brother and sister (twins) refer to me as Baby.<\/p>\n<p>4.  My parents give me a few sips of Pepsi or Mountain Dew after I take my medicine.  My mom feels a little guilty, but it&#8217;s the only thing that convinced me to cooperate with taking my medicine, and what&#8217;s a little caffeinated soda when you take chemotherapy every day?<\/p>\n<p>5.  My favorite candy is peanut butter M&#038;Ms.<\/p>\n<p>6.  I have a cute little birthmark on my elbow.<\/p>\n<p>7.  I often put a blanket over my head and tell everyone I&#8217;m gone.  I get a big kick out of watching them look for me.  I also love to pretend that I&#8217;m a bear.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m tagging anyone who is reading this, but especially <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sweetbrinley.com\/\">Brinley<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Serenity has been tagged by Mollie.
