Emma has always been on the shy side to begin with but once she is comfortable with her surroundings she quickly becomes boss. Scott and I once were concerned because she seemed a little on the mean side but she has outgrown that trait and has a lot of compassion and charity in her heart and is actually a very giving person of her time and energy.
Emma loves her little sister and has grown to be a wonderful example to her little sis (usually, she is not perfect after all) and she still adores her big brother (and only thinks he is annoying some of the time now).
Emma is a very hard worker when she is motivated to accomplish a task or job and has developed a work ethic that is very strong. Emma has proven that she can do what she sets her mind to, as an example she has saved every last penny from her job that she works at every day after school so she can help pay her way for her Europe trip this summer.
Emma doesn’t like being around sickness and doesn’t want to marry a doctor because he will bring home all those germs. This started many years ago when she became very ill as a 5 year old and had to miss about a month of school and spent a week in the hospital. Although Emma doesn’t like being around sick people she has been thrown up on on a few occasions as she has babysat. Even though that was the hardest thing for Emma she stayed the course and took care of the kids and gave them much comfort until their mom’s could come relieve her.
Emma is almost ready to leave the nest and spread her wings as she explores the world around her. I will miss her dearly when this time comes…but for now I will feel blessed to have her with me for a couple more years and thank heaven for having such a wonderful, beautiful, and amazing daughter! I love you Emma!!!
Of course I am grateful for Emma.
Flowers from her co-workers.
The famous door poster card...Cheez-it, Chips and Cheese Cake 3 of her favorites!

Lots of junk today...started with doughnuts add some cookies then a big pannekoeken (danish pancakes kind of like german pancakes) for dinner and then we topped it off with Cheese Cake! Oh I am feeling sick!
