Emily is 7!

Happy Birthday Emily!
I can't believe it's already been seven years since she was born.  
We were thrilled when Emily was born, to learn that it was a girl! Taylor was a sweet big brother to her, and loved her right from the start. 

Emily was a calm, mellow baby, with a big beautiful smile.
She has brought so much joy, love and kindness into our family.

I think she looks similar to Lizzie, and they both have the same mischievious smile.

Here's 7 things we love about Emily:
1. Emily is a planner; she likes to plan her day, week and weekend out ahead of time.  She likes to know what's going on and what we will be eating for meals etc...
(she gets that from her mom)

2.  Emily has a contagious smile, and laugh.  She gets really goofy when she's tired or with her cousins/friends.

3. Emily is a wonderful, sweet sister to Taylor, Isaac,  and Lizzie. She is so kind to everyone. She tolerates a lot before she gets angry.

4. Emily is a great helper, and doesn't whine when asked to do things. She helps around the house so much, especially with Lizzie!

5. Emily is smart; always asking questions and learning about things. She is doing great in first grade, and enjoys learning.

6.  Emily is a fantastic friend, she shares her stuff, plays well with other and has lots of friends!  She plays great with boys & girls.

7.  Emily is an overall amazing daugher- we feel so blessed to have her in our family. 

We love you Emily, Happy Birthday!!!
