Emily Lou

Right now Emily is in 1st Grade. It is crazy having her gone all day but she is loving it. She is so smart. Her teacher has already told us that she is the very top in everything in their class and is her helper. She is a big helper at home as well. I realized when school started that I was going to be losing a big helper all day. We really are lucky to have her in our family. She is beautiful! She plays soccer and is so good at it. She is one of the youngest in her league but is still able to score. She is a really good big sister and loves to play with them. She is really strong. She loves playing on the monkey bars. She can tie her shoes.  She losing lots of teeth. She is starting to watch not so many little kid shows. She is definitely growing up. Her favorite color is pink. She LOVES music and likes to write songs and sing and dance. She also loves any kind of art. She has a huge imagination and is always thinking of different games to play. She can sassy but is a lot of fun and so goofy, she loves to show us silly dance moves she has made up to make us laugh. She loves to play outside and with friends. Whistles a lot and snaps her fingers ALL THE TIME, especially anytime we are playing a board game. Great friend. Sometimes she will give us a glimpse of what it will be like to have a teenage girl. She is also fun to tease about boy at school. She is such a fun kid! We are lucky she is ours!
