I am still in denial but Emerson is now 3! She has been talking about having a princess party for what seems like months. Her only requests were a pink cake and pink ice cream! We had a family party again this year but rather than just having it all at the house we went to Incredible Pizza...one of Emerson's favorite places! We all ate plenty of pizza and had so much fun watching Emerson run from game to game while playing a few ourselves! After she racked up enough tickets for a Cinderella Barbie and a princess coloring kit we headed back to the house for cake, ice cream, and presents. As always it was wonderful having everybody together and Emerson had a perfect birthday! A couple of priceless Emerson moments came out of the day. The first was when I was setting things up at the house. When she saw the princess decorations she put her hands up to her mouth and said "Oh my gosh! Thanks Mom!" It was absolutely adorable! She is always so appreciative of everything people do for her. The next came at Incredible Pizza. There is one game where you feed in tokens pretty fast trying to hit the jackpot. She had a little stool to stand on so she could reach and was putting tokens in as fast as she could. There was a little boy playing the same game on the machine beside her with his family. All of a sudden she jumped down and started running off towards a game behind us. We had no idea what she was doing but she ran over picked up the little stool in front of that game and brought it back over for the little boy to stand on. Without missing a beat, she put it down for him climbed back up on her stool and kept feeding tokens hoping for a jackpot! It melted my heart that she would do something so thoughtful without anyone even suggesting it! Everyday you make us so proud and we feel so blessed to be your parents! We love you sweet Emerson!
