Emily

Steve and Angie's baby is Emily. She is the only blonde of the family, and I think she looks just like Steve's cousin DeeDee. She is a wisp of a thing with a powerful mind and determined spirit. She knows what she wants. This weekend, when we were at the mall, she was just distraught that she couldn't get this Tinkerbell doll we saw in KB Toys. Shame on Aunt Maria for taking her to the toy store in the first place. *smile* She finally talked her daddy into getting it for her. She was so pitiful in the store, "But I want it now. Everyone else is getting something."

Emily is in first grade and is 7. I haven't had much time to spend with her as they were living in Texas and I didn't get to see them much, then they moved to Germany. It was nice to be able to spend time with her, get to know her and love on her this weekend. She is definitely still young enough to be mama and daddy's baby, and that's so sweet.

Emily loves Tinkerbell, and our cats. She gives GREAT hugs, too!
