My Name

Have you ever heard someone sing an opera?  My name is ARIA, which is a long solo opera. Yeah, you know those usually extremely loud (viking looking) ladies that sound like metal pots and pans clanging together, while a desperate child cries for help. Well as beautiful as they’re singing can be, unfortunately it’s not for me!  My mom wanted to name me beautifully yet, intensively.
Before I was born my mom wanted to make my name special. She wanted it to have meaning but, at the same time uncommon. It had to be beautiful yet, have a story to it. My dad thought that I was going to be a boy, he undermined my mom, even though she KNEW I would be a girl.
When she finally came up with my name it was a combination of her name (Harrilyn) and my father’s name (Madara).
That’s exactly who I am, a beautiful combination of my parents. Sometimes loud, but I can be quiet. I can be funny, but I can be serious when needed. And even sometimes be lazy, but I have the grit to make it through in the end. Between me, my mom, and my dad: we all like to keep it simple. You catch us on a great day we can be bright, or garish. My dad can be more of a jokester or a buffoon and my mom is mostly serious, but she can be silly too. I have my moments where I
can be both or either one.

As most of you saw last year, I can be a handful. One thing that shows me your character is whether or not you allow me to be me, but always help me if you're able. I have nothing but love for whoever's willing to uncover it. So in a nutshell -----> :) I’m Aria Nicole Edmonds and I’m the one and only.
