*She calls crayons "crowns". Who knows why and it doesn't matter how many times you correct her, they are crowns to her.
*Emery can be full of it! I am often embarrassed/entertained by the things I hear she has said to neighbors, Primary teachers, etc. The girl has quite the imagination and comes up with quite the crazy things to say!
*She is super friendly. She makes a new best friend everywhere we go and loves to meet new kids at the store, the park, church, etc.
*It is a rare, rare thing for her to put her shoes on the right feet.
*One day she asked me "Do you want to hear a song I learned at school?" I told her I sure did! She paused and said, "Hold on, it has to load first."
*She loves to make up songs and sing while she plays.
*She loves to say the prayer and is proud to tell us after most prayers, "I closed my eyes the whole time!!"
*She loves to be outside and play, play, play, play!!
*She still talks out of the side of her mouth from time to time, and it still cracks us all up.
*She gets really excited about things and will get right in your face to tell you about it. She gets so animated, it's so funny!
*She loves to repeat quantity-ish words. A lot. When she says she loves you she will say, "I love you so so so so soooooo so so soooo soooo so so so so sooooooo....(etc, etc) much!" Or one day she was saying something about how your great great great great great great great (on and on) Grandma would be dead. Silly girl.
*She and Avri sure do their fair share of fighting, but they really do love to play together and run around the neighborhood with their cute group of friends.
*Emery is a great big sister to Claire and they love to be goofy together. Emery does often hide herself from Claire so Claire won't "mess up" what she is playing with.
*While giving me a squeeze she said, "When I hug you like this it means I love you."

(Please don't mind the dead grass and poor background choice, I was in a hurry to get a couple pictures before I dropped the girls off with my Mom.)
