I can't believe our sweet little angel is already three! Of course there are times when we forget she's ONLY three (Greg thought she was turning four for a brief second), but whatever age she is, pretends to be, acts like, or looks like we love her dearly!
Emory (Emsies, Miss Em, Angel, Pink Monkey, Munchkin...), you are such a blessing to our family! You are always there to cheer us up, laugh with us, snuggle with us, or help us out whenever we need you, even before we ask! You are the most agreeable person I have ever met, but also aren't afraid to hold your ground when you're challenged or threatened. You are a wonderful Mommy to all your babies, friends and family, taking good care of all of us and making sure we have everything we need. You are the first one to offer assistance when the need arises. You are a true fashion diva, always knowing what to wear and how to wear it, you love your make-up and accessories too! You are so gifted with your physical abilities, playing basketball, soccer, t-ball, volleyball and anything else you can do that involves running or jumping! That physical ability stretches all the way over to high heels...you rock! You walk in high heels better than most runway models! You can dance and groove, always staying with the beat and you can mimic any step your dance teacher shows you, the first time! You are doing so well with your language skills, and your desire to read and write is amazing! You are always grateful for what you're given and content with what you've got! You are an incredible blessing to this family, to everyone who has had the opportunity to meet you and to the entire world! Your teacher, Miss Donna, told me if her whole class were Emorys then she wouldn't have a job to do because always mind and always help the other children out with everything! Thank you for who you are and for who you will become! Mommy and Daddy love you with our whole hearts and look forward to loving you more with each and every day! We are so proud of you just for being you.
Since the day you were born we have loved you more than words can express! I haven't found the CD of pictures from that day because your daddy is on an organize kick, but here is a picture from just a few weeks later
By your first birthday we knew you would be a wonderful person to be around. You never cried, always slept well and loved learning from the world around you by observing every little detail. You weren't talking much at this point, but you didn't have much of a chance to with Trinity as your big sister. You loved celebrating your first birthday in your special dress and you were so excited about every single gift!
Then, before we knew it you were two! By this point you were talking up a storm, saying your first word of "thank you", even though it sounded a little more like doctor "dac due" and had definitely expressed your affection for your mommy and grandmothers, always giving us a few extra hugs, kisses and smiles! You were already cruising around in your high heels and had made it well known you had a preference of what you would wear every day, either a spinny dress or a Minnie Mouse shirt (or two). You were so willing to play your sisters games and share your toys with her, but also made your own suggestions of what you guys should do together. You were getting so excited to become a big sister! I can't believe this was a year ago! I look at these pictures and feel like it was just yesterday!
This past year has been filled with some pretty amazing moments! From starting school to becoming a big sister and thinking you're the boss of everyone, to making even more strides toward being an amazing person, not just a good kid! This isn't a very good picture for your birthday picture, but I'll get all the party pictures on soon and there are some precious ones there!
We love you Emory!!!!!! We hope your birthday is everything you want it to be and more than you ever imagined it could be!
