She is my youngest grandchild. Still young enough to be goofy at times .LOL I can see the changes in her though. She is growing up. My sweet crafting pal. Oh by the way she had crafts planned for her sleep over birthday party. Emma and her little friends were going to make glow in the dark, night shirts.
The years are flying by. Which , if I dwelled on that thought I would be crying all the time. So I can't go there. Gloomy this morning and it has rained again. A promise of clearing skies soon. Hope you have warm sunshine.xo
she is lovely, the days ddo fly by but what joy they bring with a child as this,
ReplyDeleteI feel I have a special connection with all my grandkids...but with her being the youngest, I guess I am clinging to her. xoxo,Susie
DeleteOh Susie, the days are flying by and I can't keep up with them.
ReplyDeleteEmma is such a sweet girl and no matter how old she gets you will always be special to her.
Beth, you know that old saying, "wish I could bottle this"...that is how I feel, I wish we could pull out days to live over. She has promised to always be my pal. xo,Susie
DeleteShe's so cute! Just like you and her mother! Enjoy your weekend my friend! Sweet hugs!
ReplyDeleteThank you Diane, you are so kind. I have a date with Teddy Bear for dinner on Sunday. xoxo,Susie
DeleteMy sweet niece who is more like my granddaughter is 11 now. She no longer runs to hug me when she sees me. So sad to me. Her eyes still light up and she waves, but I sure miss that outward expression of love.
ReplyDeleteI guess that is why I am clinging to Emma's youth...I do not want to be left behind. We know they will always love us...but we need those hugs all the time. xoxo,Susie
DeleteSusie,
ReplyDeleteI hope Emma had a good time at the dance. Happy Birthday Emma! Glow in the dark night shirts, how fun! I would love to see them. I just saw a bunny book that I used to read to the kids when they were little, and had to buy it. Aaahhh, so many sweet memories. I know what you mean, Susie, they grow up so fast.
Happy weekend.
love,
~Sheri
I'll see if I can get a photo of the shirts. I still love to read some of the stories I read to my children. Blessings, xoxo,Susie
DeleteOh, the years pass all too quickly! Hope you have some sunshine now! xo Nellie
ReplyDeleteNellie, I hope I will hold all these memories and can recall them when I want. xoxo,Susie
Deleteoh Susie ,

Patty, I had a sunny day, loved it. I am blessed to be able to see my g.kids as much. xo,Susie
DeleteOh you sound like me, Susie. You can not dwell on growth and change. :) Emma is adorable and she's quite stylish in her chevron.
ReplyDeleteStacey, I cry if I think too hard about the g.kids growing up ...Emma is our youngest and turning ten seems to be to close to being a teen. LOL. xoxo,Susie
DeleteOh, school dances - not one of the things I miss about teaching and being activities director. But, the kids love the dances.
ReplyDeleteShe looks so cute all dressed up.
Emma's brother is going to prom this month...now that is killing me. LOL. day to day seems to be an eternity, but year to year , it goes so fast. xoxo,Susie
DeleteShe's adorable, and you are so right to enjoy every moment with her. Our grandchildren are very spread out...oldest 27 w/ 2 children, and the youngest 10 mo. But they fly away too soon for any of us.
ReplyDeleteThank you Wanda, My oldest g.child is 27....yikes. I know when my g.daughter gets married in June, she'll want a child, I am sure...then I'll be a greatgrandmother...wow. xoxo,Susie
DeleteBTW there are "10" between those two..HaHa.. Cheaper by the dozen.
ReplyDeleteI think my mom was trying for the cheap dozen...she had 11 children. xo,Susie
DeleteHappy Birthday to Emma! She sounds like a sweet girl, that is neat she is crafty! You are blessed to have her as your grand daughter!
DeleteOh- I know you are dreading that next step with her, Susie. I hate to see those sweet stages of the kids pass by. I am so glad we have a few "little ones" coming on-they are a pure joy to my heart. Emma is just darling in her dress! xo Diana
ReplyDeleteSusie, you live with no regrets because you have enjoyed every minute. You will still joys as long as you have grands....the joys simply change....and then there will be GREAT grands!!
