My darling daughter....

Today my darling daughter turns 11!!!!

I have no idea where all this time has gone. She is flourishing into a wonderful young woman. She loves her family and she has a true love for God. Her love and understanding of Christ amazes me almost every day.

One day shortly after Christmas, one of the boys asked if Santa went to heaven when we die to bring us present (cause when your 6-7 that is VERY important). Emma said "I got this". She responded to the best answer I could ever think of. She said

"No boys, Heaven IS your gift."
 
Her answer just completely blew me away. I could not be more proud of who she is and who she is becoming. She amazes me daily with the way she loves and cares for pretty much everything.
 
So here is Emma's birthday pictures from her past 10 years of life. Enjoy!!!
