The Family Song

Family Day

November 6, 2010. Our four year Family Day Anniversary. We can't remember a day without her. Our cuddle seeking, party throwing, bundle of energy. Star gazer, food grazer, fire-ant taser. Explorer, artist, inventor, chef. Dancer, singer, mommy and daddy clinger. Friendly, sweet, button-pusher, heart melter. Friend, sister, niece, cousin, grandaughter. Our cloud fluffer, sun shiner, Master of our Universe. Our daughter. Emily Rose Xiaoqiong. Our love, our light. We only look forward to more days with you. Happy Family Day to our Heartbeat!

Frogs and Blondies

Thought I'd share one of my favorites... Hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

So....

Her new favorite move is Jaws. Yes, I said JAWS. Hence the Jaws quotes on the blog. Her take-"why is that shark smashing their restaurant?" That's the scene where they are singing on the boat..."show me the way to go home."Emily="Oooooh I like that song they singing in that restaurant." She watched Quint "go into the shark's belly to look around" and said "oh that shark is so fresh is that blood?" "Yes it is, he hurt his lip." Emily-"oh no, how is he going to get out?" Just wait and see sweetie. The shark blows up! Hmmmmmm? "That shark is popped and the man came out to be with his friends again." "Those mans are heroes. That shark not bery nice. He bit the man from the restaurant lips-that's not nice. That's not nice at all." No sweetie-not nice" Bwahahahahaha. Emily-"Can you buy dat movie for my little TV, the DVD, okay, okay? That's my most favorite movie evah!" Houston we have a problem.

And Just Like That

....she is five.

Not really. We have been a little busy. Playing Silence of the Lambs. Having lunch with friends who visited from Iowa. Visiting Galveston. And playing dress-up! Now we are all having a nice Chianti with some fava beans.
