Failure and Emmaisms

I admit it…I’m a failure.  At least I come by it honestly, right?  So I’m supposed to be blogging about this book daily. If you are a follower of my blog, it is apparent that I am woefully lacking in follow-through.  I suppose in this season of our lives it just isn’t going to work out.  My husband and I both work from home for a wonderful company, but we try to insure we work perfectly opposite shifts so that we can avoid daycare for our three littles.  To that end, it has become abundantly clear that I’m not going to get 5 minutes of uninterrupted quiet to read even a portion of a chapter.  Alas, my book blogging adventure must be shelved for now (pun intended).

Having said that, I’d instead like to introduce you, today, to my precocious little 4 year old, Emma Faith.  This little blonde spit-fire has her daddy and me wrapped around her little finger.  She’s our middle child, you see.

Each day with Emma is filled with what I call Emmaisms.   I’ll share a few today…

Mommy,  when  me  and  Jack  and  Maggie  and  me  are  teenagers,  we’re  gonna get  to  live  here  still (I guess she’s planning ahead!)

Mom,  the  clouds  are  a  girl  color!

Mama,  my  pant  SLEEVES  are  too  long!

Mama, how do chameleons itch their skin?

and my favorite from the past week….

Mama,  sometimes  when  me  and   Maggie  have  a  deal,  we  do  Pinky  Sweater! (ie. pinky swear)


As I’m writing this, she’s  standing behind me singing Pizza Angel.  Such a funny girl, my Emma Faith.  I don’t know what I would do without her…
