Seven

So my baby girl turned 7.  We had our traditional breakfast with her that morning (coffee cake, eggs, hashbrowns).  She was happy.

I decided to make Emma's cake the same day as Megan's cake and then just decorated it that day.  Emma loves gum so we had a gumball cake.  And we've decided to do "mini-cakes" since no one really likes to eat the cake anyway (except Mom). 

Opening presents that night

  Someone is always crying during present opening.  This time it was Isaac's turn.

Thomas got her a necklace.  Here he is putting it on her.  Such a cute brother.

Isaac likes it too.

Happy Birthday to you...


 
7 Things about Emma

1.  She makes us laugh by the funny things she says.  And she has a cute giggle too.
2.  She is fun to go places with and to shop with.  She helps me pick out things.
3.  I love it when she is grumpy and then she sees Isaac.  Almost immediately she perks up.  I love how she loves her baby brother. 
4.  She is a great soccer player, just like big sister.  She is aggressive!  She also has no fear of roller coasters (glad that she doesn't take after her mom in that regard).
5.  She loves to cuddle and snuggle and never gets tired of that.  Usually when she's in a sour mood it means she just needs a little love.
6.  Emma loves music and to sing.  She has a cute little vibrato in her voice.
7.  Emma loves to make things for people and write notes to them.  She is very thoughtful.

Happy Birthday Sissy!
