I had to post a few items about her since I love and miss her so much.
In random order.
First off she was a Great Baby who pacified herself by sucking her thumb then gave it up on her own when she turned one. Now what kid does that on her own?

Which leads to the 2nd great thing about Emily -- Fiercly independent.
3. An extremely hard worker. She's like a whirlwind when I ask her to clean up a room.
4. She is a very good Pianist and also played violin. She wanted violin lessons when she was in jr. high but I could not afford everything this talented girl wanted to learn.

5.artistic and creative.

6. great at word games
7. athletic (She even beats boys)

8. wonderful teacher
9. hiker/camper

10. Enjoys reading
11. spiritual
12. served a mission in South Korea

13. loves fish now. Who would have thought?
14. "just like a mom" That's what she used to say to Landon when he wanted mom.

15.fun loving

16. positive attitude

17. sensitive
18.good friend

19. adventurous
20. smart
21. good listener like her dad
22. loves her family
23. quiet
24. Daddy's Girl

HAPPY BIRTHDAY EMILY!!
I Love you so much,
Love,
Mom

ReplyDeleteHaha, I just saw this. You're the best mom and kate. Love ya guys!
ReplyDeleteToo bad we didn't have any pictures of the three doors that she punched holes in. We could have added #25 - Housewrecker.
ReplyDeleteLove you Em.
Dad
