Happy Birthday, Emma!

Emma in her "Splish, Splash" Costume - June 2008


Emma on her blessing day - September 2004


Four years ago today Emma came to be a part of our family. It's hard to believe it has already been four years. She is getting so big and is so independent. We love to watch her make up funny little dances. We love when she makes up funny songs - like "Jumprope, jumprope, really really jumprope. We are having so much FUN!" (That is an Emma original.) We love her big smile and her mischieviousness. If you ever need a mess to be made, she's your girl (she is always trying to do things herself which usually spells disaster). She is a smart girl and we are so excited for her to start preschool this year because we know she will do well. We love our little "Lemon-lime". Happy Birthday, Emma!

Happy Birthday, Emma!! I will verify she is absolutely darling and I will also verify she can make a whopper of a mess. Well she can at least unfold and scatter all my towels and wash cloths when she and Elara get together at my house. They do it every time. (It must be a fun activity, I will have to try it sometime.) Anyway, she is so cute and I love her so much.
I especially love how she loves me.
