But our kids are amazingly resilient and such good sports!

After we had a relaxing and delicious morning with friends, we heading to the "fockers" as I like to call them aka my parents!

Haaa Haaa!!! Good times! My husband always has some goofy trick up his sleeve! That video is a classic and that moment will be forever engraved in my head! It was sooo funny!

Been reading your blog...Glad that you are writting again! You are a wonderful person Emily! We love you so much and think about you often! As hard as it is, these crummy moments make us stretch and grow and then stretch again...and sometimes it seems like the stretching might just tear us into peices! It's a great thing that we have such a wonderful family to count on when the going gets rough! You know that you can call on us...thick or thin, rain or shine! Again, we love you and are proud of YOU!!!!

Em - I can feel the same little girl I knew when we were little coming through these last posts especially...my mom always said you were the most spunky and resilient little thing. This is the Emily that will make it through the kind of heartache most of us can't comprehend. You are so strong and beautiful. Love you!
