Bugs and make-up. That's Em right now. I love that she's interested in both, so I indulge her. Actually I think the whole make up thing for her is just another way she gets creative about putting paint on something. This morning, when I came down, Em had fed her ladybug a leaf and made me a necklace. She also had put on her new makeup. She looked a bit evil. So we re-did it and headed out to take some "this is what I looked like when I was 8" pictures. I love the top one because it says so much about her. Bugs and flowers, makeup and dresses, and always making poses. Especially for the camera. (Yeah, that's probably my fault.)
Orange is Em's color. It fits. Hard to miss. And have I mentioned she loves to climb trees? Luckily she's so light the branches at the top don't break under her weight yet.
She's got my squinty eye smile. But she also looks a bit like Aunt Liz.
You're beautiful, Em. Just like you are. With or without makeup.
I love you.
Even after you spill tadpole juice all over me.
Happy Birthday!

ok I can't even stand this blog's new look. It's too perfect. I love the title shot, the individual pics, the new posts. And Em looks AMAZING in that first shot, like a model. And in the next one she looks like her mama :) Great pics of a beautiful girl...
Thanks Laur.
It's been fun.
:-)
