Emily-4 years old

 Emily turned 4 on Jan. 5th.  She is sweet, energetic, independent, loving, and silly.  This little girl keeps me on my toes, but I love her so much.  She loves playing with her siblings, and she is her Megan's sidekick.  Emily loves playing anything with Megan and while they have their moments, they have such a sweet relationship.  She is learning better how to play with Anna as it is just Emily and Anna while Megan is at school.  She just absolutely adores her little brother.  I can't put Timothy down on the ground without having her come right behind him to pick him up.  She loves church and visiting with different ones before the services.  She is my aggressive one in soccer and gives it her all in games.  She loves giving us thumbs up during the games and is often exhausted after practices and games b/c she plays so hard.  Purple is her favorite color.  She loves riding her bike and scooter. She is just a fun little girl!

Here are a few pictures from her birthday and birthday party (which was the day after).

Happy Birthday Emily.  She enjoyed donuts for breakfast!

A usual, she had to give lots of love to Timothy on his birthday.
