Emma Turns Three!

My sweet girl turns three today! I can't believe how grown up she has become. She has such a big heart and is the most fabulous big sister.  I could not be more proud of her.

We had the best day celebrating Emma's special day. We started the day with a special breakfast of chocolate chip waffles and yogurt topped with sprinkles. She even got a candle to blow out.
 She wanted to play outside and she was in luck because it was the perfect day. The girls had a blast playing and blowing bubbles.

 The day was full of surprises for the birthday girl. She got a special lunch from Chick-fil-A, courtesy of Daddy, a balloon delivery from Aunt Nicole, and lots of phone calls, emails, and birthday wishes.

Her dinner of choice was pancakes, bacon, and fruit followed by a request for chocolate cupcakes with rainbow chip frosting and vanilla ice cream. The girl knows what she wants!

 After dinner, she opened up her presents from Andy, Sophia, and I and cards that she had received. She cracked us up reading her cards and reading what she thought they said. She was ecstatic to get a card and oohed and ahhed over each and every one.

Our gift to her was dance lessons and all the gear that goes along with it.

 In an effort to burn off some sugar, we headed to the park to enjoy the last bit of sunshine. Emma got a kite for Easter so we took it along since it was pretty windy and she ended up flying it all by herself. She was thrilled!





 Emma,

Daddy and I are so proud of you and we love you more than words can say.  Your sweet spirit and kind heart bless everyone who knows you.  You are the only person we know that can push our buttons and make us laugh at the same time.  I have loved watching you grow and can't wait to see what else your life has in store. I just know you are destined for something wonderful. I love you, Peanut!

Love,
Mommy
