Our Emily 10/2008

Emily (third in from the left) is just a few months away from being 14! She has become such a beautiful young women with such a sweet kind spirit about her (that hasn't changed though). She has changed so much just over the summer. She is a great kid and really besides asking her to keep her room clean she really is an easy child and always has been. All those prayers worked when I was pregnant with her. I was sooooo scared when I found out I was pregnant with baby #3, I really did pray through the whole pregnancy and on the way to the hospital. She was the only birth I was able to receive an epidural, which is the way God intended it to be!! She is a gorgeous girl, with an incredibly beautiful spirit to match. She is inching up to be as tall or taller than Chelsea, which isn't hard to do but exciting for Emily none the less. Alyssa still remains the tallest though. She is a very sweet and thoughtful friend. She is a dedicated student and works hard at doing her best. I am quite afraid to send her to the teen dances, she is so cute. The boys will gobble her up! The above picture is her at a Beehive activity with friends and leaders she loves. And they love her! Well, who doesn't?
