Our Emily

As part of her birthday post this year, I asked our immediate family this question:
"Besides the obvious, what is one thing you remember about the day Emily was born?"

And here are the answers:

Jen (aka Mommy) - I remember the moment the doctor said that our baby was a girl and thought 'it's an Emily'!

Chris (aka Daddy) -  I woke up at 3:45 and washed the car.  I was anxiously excited to see what the day would bring.

Uncle Scott - "  Waiting in the hospital waiting room hoping it was a girl and then getting the good news it was""

Auntie Karena - "Seeing her adorable little face, and small perfect fingers and toes."

Auntie B - "I remember thinking, how can something so tiny already hold such a big place in my heart?!"

Uncle Ryan - "...that Chris washed the car at an insane time that morning."

Grammy Jill - "On the day you were born, I couldn’t wait to meet you! Papa Dirt and I were so excited!   I thought you were so beautiful....with a tiny nose and mouth, and so cute!"

Papa Dirt - "I had never seen a C-Section baby, and thought WOW, you were so perfect.... no “smashed head” "

Grandma Sandy and Papa Bike - ".....I think seeing our son holding his new baby girl in his arms, looking at her with amazement of how beautiful she was and his excitement of being a daddy. It is hard to explain how gratifying and wonderful it is to watch your child with his child, absolutely priceless the pride and love you feel as a parent."
