MY "TINY DANCER"


Well here goes about the baby of the family, Emma who just turned 8.  What can I say?  We thought we were done with our family after the 2 boys, but guess what?  God blessed us with a little Princess to complete the picture.  I will admit that it was a big adjustment to go from everything being boyish and blue to girlie and pink....  Girls are definitely different creatures than boys!!  Mood swings start at a very early age and will probably NEVER stop.  All I can say to that is "Calgon take me away".  Seriously though, I wouldn't trade her for anything.  She is a spirited child like her brother Wyatt!!!  So now there is one of me and 2 mini me's, one in male form and one in female form.  My parents sure got their payback for all of my childhood antics!!!  Well let's talk about Ms. Emma.  She is very smart and an excellent dancer.  Emma prefers ballet and is showing quite a talent.  Besides dancing, she loves to sing, which I will say she also is showing a talent for.  She has decided she would like to be a teacher and professional dancer when she grows up.  It is amazing to see such a beautiful, sassy little girl at play when she thinks no one is looking.  I love to stand around the corner without her knowing and just listen and watch.  Emma is so much more animated and able to be creative and occupy herself in her room for hours on end.  She has her daddy wrapped around her finger, probably like most little girls!!  I am amazed at how she can be dressed to the "nines" and packing a gun...  She and Wyatt are 2 1/2 years apart but have been mistaken for twins.  She of course thinks this is funny while Wyatt tends to scowl and stand a little taller.  Luke always wanted a baby sister and was a little disappointed when he first received a brother but was ecstatic when Emma entered our world.  He is very protective, loves to hug her, and is constantly telling her she is pretty.  Of course Her Highness seems untouched by the compliments.  Emma is a little chatter box unless she is in a sullen mood (seems to happen alot lately).  Never far from her side is her trusty sidekick's pink and purple blanks along with Moosey!  Moosey of course is not a Moose but a Horse,  Go figure!!!  It is amazing to raise three children in the same environment and all of them turn out to be so individual.  Well more to come on ballerina Emma soon!!.
