The event felt private but very real. It showed how the family celebrates both their bond and the meaning behind July 4. The vibe was relaxed, but the fireworks and joy made it feel like a full celebration.

'From brave beginnings to big milestones, Kaav, you've learned, grown, and blazed your way through kindergarten.'
That moment added more meaning to the family's 4th of July celebration, as Kaavia enters a new chapter.
In an interview with Marie Claire, Gabrielle spoke about their parenting journey, saying,
'Every single person's surrogacy journey is different… But for me, it felt like failure. My body failed…'
The Wade family's July 4 celebration was more than just fireworks and sunshine -it was a reminder of how love, laughter and togetherness can make any day something special.

Wimbledon: Ben Shelton pleaded for extra time off for his sister at Morgan Stanley. It worked After advancing to face Italy's Lorenzo Sonego on Monday in the fourth round, Shelton spoke in an on-court interview in front of a crowd that included his sister, Emma, and his girlfriend, U.S. national soccer team star Trinity Rodman. 'I've been playing well this week. It's not just been me here. I have a great team. My parents are here. My grildfriend's here. Also, my sister's here. She's been here for every match that I've played this tournament so far. She's been the lucky charm,' said the 10th-seeded Shelton, a 22-year-old American who has appeared in two Grand Slam semifinals. 'But she has work back in the U.S., starting on Monday. She works for Morgan Stanley.' That drew some boos from spectators as Emma covered her face with her hands. 'If any of you all have some and get her a couple extra days off so she can we can keep this rolling,' Shelton continued after his 6-3, 7-6 , 6-2 victory over Marton Fucsovics of Hungary on Saturday, 'that'd be great.' Sure enough, hours later, Emma posted a short video on Instagram in which Ben is heard asking her, 'You got the week off or what?' She jumps up and down with her arms raised and a wide smile, and Ben says, 'Shoutout, Morgan Stanley.' The caption reads 'thank you MS' with three blue heart emojis and 'return flight: cancelled.' Ben Shelton, who won all nine sets he played in Week 1 at the All England Club, beat Sonego in the Australian Open quarterfinals in January.
