Our sweet, strong-willed, smart, funny Emma has turned 3. It all at once feels like she was just born and has been here all along. She is a wonderful sister and friend and while her strong opinions and determination does not always make my life easier as her mother, it will serve her well in life I think.
She loves to sing songs, some known to all, some known only to her;) She is flourishing in school and enjoys hanging with the bigger kids (she is in a mixed room with 3-6 year olds). Emma is strong and runs everywhere she goes, seriously everywhere. Swimming is her current outside of school activity and she is rocking at it. And Happy bear still remains an ultimate favorite- although he has needed a few more repairs.
I love my Emma Roo so much it is impossible to put into words. Thanks for making me laugh and being one of the best daughters a mama could ask for.
At school she did her Montessori sun celebration and Ada and I were both able to go. It was very sweet. They hold a globe and walk around a little sun and stop each year to reflect on what they were doing at birth, one year, two years, three years and all the kids sing a little song as the child walks around. Clearly, she loved it!
For her birthday this year she declared she wanted to "go to the zoo with her whole famiyee." So, we took the girls out of school for the day and headed to the
Minnesota Zoo. It was awesome!
All told an awesome family day! Happy Birthday Emma! We love you!
