Emma writing her big girl tricycle all by herself!

Reading the Father's Day book she gave to her Daddy...

Emma had her first big girl babysitter yesterday!!!! I had a meeting about doing a portfolio to get my MN Teaching License, El and my Mom and Denny all out of town... My mom's next door neighbor's daughter came over..... And Emma had diarrhea the WHOLE time I was gone!!!!! Poor Sadie, she was in the battle field and did so well. Poor Em, too. I just pray she'll babysit again after that experience:)

On a cute note, Emma is obsessed with bugs lately (she often leaves the screen door to the deck open so we get flies in the house - yuck!). So yesterday she had me "get it", a fly, and I decided we'd flush it down the toilette so she couldn't dig it out of the garbage (she wants to hold them - I know, she's "quirky"!). As she flushed the toilette I said "Bye fly" and she goes "Bye fly, see ya next time!" CUTE!!!!

Love to all....
