Time with Emma

Emma at our "picnic" in her room.

I have really enjoyed the chance to spend lots of one on one time with Emma since school started. I never realized how much time she actually spent with Eli. Now that he is gone, I know they played together a lot! I have never been so busy! We are constantly doing puzzles, board games, and playing in her kitchen. She loves puzzles and will literally do them for hours (with help of course!) I have a hard time squeezing in my daily chores with all this activity. She loves to be my buddy. I can't wait for nicer weather so we can spend some time outside. It's been so fun spending time with my only girl. I love that she is so different from the boys. She plays with her dolls, wears necklaces and bracelets, pretends to cook. She even sit still long enough for me to put a french braid in her hair! Such a great time with my little Emma Bear. Oh how I wish she would stay small forever.
