Happy Birthday Emily

Emily turned 9 on the 22nd. I can't believe how fast she has grown. It seems just like yesterday she arrived. The birth of your first child is extra special. You become a mom and start looking at life in a completely different way. You are no longer as careless or carefree for that matter as you once were. Emily has brought some much joy to our family. She is the sweetest, most thoughtful little girl. She has the memory of an elephant and never forgets anyone or anything. She loves traditions and keeps us in check if we let one slip by. She is ambitious, athletic and gives her best in everything she does. She is not afraid to eat new things and can eat most grown men under the table. We love you Emily.
