May is a crazy month for me as a high school principal with the school year wrapping up, graduation, and lots of exciting things going on. \u00a0I am so grateful that Emma is so easygoing and willing to always be out and about. \u00a0Clint and I are incredibly blessed that Emma loves to be around people. \u00a0One of my dear friends described Emma as having a “ready smile” and I think that is one of the coolest things for her to be known by. \u00a0We desire first and foremost for Emma to know Jesus and to run hard after Him and His glory. \u00a0After that, we pray that she would be known as someone that cares about others, someone that contributes to the group she is a part of, and as someone that is authentic in her words and her actions.<\/p>\n

This past month has brought with it even more exciting things as Emma continues to grow and become even more independent than she already is. \u00a0Emma is always watching and learning. \u00a0She loves to run around the house singing and laughing. \u00a0We call her our microsnuggler because she is very loving and affectionate…just quick about it. \u00a0One of her favorite things is to give two kisses. \u00a0One is “easy” and the second is a “BIG ONE”.<\/p>\n

Now that the weather is warm…I mean blazing hot…we have spent time at the pool and on the lake. \u00a0Our family loves the water and we look forward to creating many fun memories this summer. \u00a0This summer we are definitely going to knock out potty training and continue some other things. \u00a0We are going to continue lots of days of blowing bubbles, sidewalk chalk, soccer (inside and outside), and anything else that Miss Emma comes up with. \u00a0I love the fact that she likes to sleep in my tshirts and insists on leaving her flip flops right by her bed. \u00a0She checks her “email” when Clint and I have our laptops open and she is always writing lists and “calling people”. \u00a0May was a great month and we are looking forward to an awesome summer!<\/p>\n
