Emily. There are many ways to describe this little lady. Caring, nuts, terrified of squirrels and being held down, funny, entertaining, smart, my essay editor, friend, and platonic life partner to Judd. That last one is a recent development.
Sometimes, Lil Em gets into crazy moods. Do you remember when you were little and went trick-or-treating for Halloween? You ended up with more candy that any one person could eat by themselves, but you tried to take care of it all by yourself anyways? Then there was that sugar high. Do you remember that feeling?
Emily likes to re-enact this state of being, minus consuming the multiple pounds of candy in one evening.
This is Emily on a "sugar-high"
She jumped off the chair or couch more than a handful of times. to be honest, I think this lasted for more than an hour. It. Was. Terrifying.
Thanks to me and my little expensive camera, this joy/craziness was captured. She kept yelling "take my picture!" then jumping off the couch and asking if it turned out.
She's a special little girl. I'm terrified to see what will happen when she moves out on here own.
