*THIS* is my baby! My Monkey-doodle! My peanut! My Em! And *THIS* is my favorite baby picture of her. She was a few short hours old when this photo was taken but it displays the personality that we would grow to know and love. Yes, children are definitely a product of their environment, their nurture...but a lot of Emily's personality is absolutely nature! She came out, picked up her head like she'd been holding it up for years, looked around the room and then looked back at me as if to say, "huh - so this is 'it', huh Mom? Well...let's DO this thing then!" She is independent and strong, funny and clever. She is sweet and caring. She has never met a stranger - only new friends (yup - sometimes this makes me a little nervous). She, of course, worships her big sister even as she scraps with her. She loves her Grandparents and her cousin Brady. She completes our family...like a big exclamation mark at the end of the sentence. I am ridiculously thankful for her every single day!
