Everything Emma: God's Greatest Miracle

God's Greatest Miracle

God's miracles never cease to amaze me. Since becoming pregnant with Emma and watching her change from a tiny, peanut size embryo into the 18lb six month old baby that she is today this statement has never been more true or had a more profound meaning. The moment I discovered I was pregnant was the moment my life changed forever. The first time I saw her tiny little heart beat on the ultrasound screen, I knew I would never be the same again, and the first time I held my beautiful baby girl, my heart was forever changed. In that one moment I felt more love than I had ever know in my entire life. Upon meeting my precious little girl for the first time I knew that this was someone I would give my life for without so much as a second thought. That day everything about myself and my life changed forever. God has bestowed immeasurable blessings upon Issac and I and our little Emma Reese is proof of this statement. What a miracle she is and what a wonderful life we share because of Gods gifts and everlasting love. I hope everyone enjoys these photos that show Emma from the very beginning stages of her life. God is GREAT!

What Emma is Doing

All of her colors.

All of her letters.

All basic shapes and even a handful of more advanced one.

Can name all of her body parts.

Knows the days of the week and can even tell you which activities she has on which days.

She has been doing chores and has been responsible for cleaning her playroom and bedroom for about a year. In recent months she has gotten to a point where she will often begin her cleaning for the day without me having to ask or monitor her while she does it.

Can re-tell many of the stories from the Bible and can tell you all about Jesus.

Knows how to spell her name.

Learning how to write her letters- we haven't really started working on writing number yet.

Learning some basic addition.

Learning about money and the value of different coins. This ties in well with teaching her addition because she is learning simple things like 5 pennies= 1 nickle.

Still a very healthy little eater and typically has no aversion to eating her veggies. She does prefer eating them raw and loves going to my favorite salad spot for lunch after morning gymnastics.

Loves listening to music and enjoys playing piano and guitar with Daddy. We have the keys on our piano labeled so for about the past year she has been learning the notes.

Loves her "Best friend pup" and sleeps with him every night.

Very good at drawing and has taught herself to draw so many things that I did not think a three year old could even draw.

Going to gymnastics three days a week- she can do front rolls, tuck jumps, straddle jumps, and pikes all by herself and is even walking backwards on the beam, doing small jumps on the beam, and doing simple flips on the bars. She is currently working on cartwheels and simple back walkovers using the mat that is shaped like a block.

Fully potty trained- praise the Lord for that one!

Knows all about different types of food and can tell you which foods are healthy and which are unhealthy.
