happy birthday, Emma!

Emma, age 12

Emma, age 3 months (March 1998)

Emma turned 12 last week!

(say what?!)

That's what my brain does every time I think about it.

Since she is *twelve* (say what?) I have to tread lightly with this post.

You know- make her feel good, not embarrassed.

Here goes....

A few of Emma's favorite things...

book series: Warriors by Erin Hunter (Fictional stories about clans of wild cats)

movie: The Lion King

color: purple

creative thing to do: sculpt

thing to do on a rainy day: read

song: n/a (she'd rather listen to a book on CD than to music any day)

comic strip: Calvin & Hobbes

aspiration: to become a cartoon illustrator and/or an author

We love you, girl!
