My little Emmabug turned 5 a couple of weeks ago. She wanted a ladybug cake which I thought was interesting since she's terrified of bugs, unless its a spider on the ceiling at which point she claims its her friend Spidey and I'm not allowed to kill it.
Can I just say this was the hardest birthday shopping I've EVER had? What do you get for a child that is happy with what she has except for a scooter that she's been asking for since Madilyn got one for her birthday. I was online looking for ideas for so long that my carpal tunnel syndrome from college came back!
In honor of her birthday I thought I would share some Emma facts:
- she has 3 body books and one body coloring book
- she loves them
- she knows where the cerebellum is
- and the brain stem
- and stomach
- and liver
- and loves the parts of the inner ear
- she keeps asking me what the adrenal glad does and I have no idea
- she is incredibly sensitive - emotionally (think crying over which breakfast cereal to eat in the morning) and physically (sound, light, smells)
- loving - I get more hugs from her than anyone else
- cuddly - she would be happy being in physical contact with me at all times
- smart - she started sounding out words at 3 and now she does a 1st grade reading and writing book (she starts kindergarten next year)
- she has the most quotes on Notable Quotables from Nashville
Emma is a special girl. We are so blessed to have her in our family.
