Sunday, February 12, 1978
Three days after my birth. From my mama's journal. (Which she is letting me borrow.)
Sweet Emily...I sure love having her with me. I talk and sing to her and she stares right into my eyes like she understands every word....It's peaceful, and a sunny day, and I sure feel happy and lucky to have my sweet daughter here at last. I'm thankful and telling Heavenly Father real often how I love her and that I'll do my best to bring her and all the children back to Him. My five babies have been my most faith-promoting experiences. They have all been miracles--how can anyone doubt God's love and power? The baby, in my opinion could easily have died in delivery, yet was born without one mark! A perfect treasure to protect and give back to Heavenly Father still beautiful, pure and lovely! What a challenge in these days. I hope we can do our best with all five--they all belong to Him and have such great potential!
Hope you don't mind me sharing this, Mommy! It sums up for me some of your greatest qualities as a person and as my mother: Your strong faith in a loving Heavenly Father, and the tremendous love you have for your children. (And now grandchildren.) I love you lots and lots and can't wait to see you in August! xoxoxo

And a special thank you to my mother-in-law Susan for raising such a great son! He made me French Toast with caramelized peaches for breakfast, and a Thai feast for dinner today. I think I'll keep him! Plus, you're just a cool lady even without taking your exceptional off-spring into consideration! We love you. And some day I'll download a bunch of your photo's to show off on my blog! :)
To all the Mommies out there: May you strive to be as cool as mine.

To the FOUR boys who made me a mama: Thank you for not leaving too many stretch marks. I love you lots and lots. Now please go flush and wash!
And to those of you who HAVE a mother (or two or three): My mom can beat up your mom. (If she wanted to, but she doesn't.)
Happy Mother's Day!!!

I saw your Mama yesterday. It was very nice (at Katie cousin's baby shower).
I had my baby Emilee with me, and I just wanted Fazer to hold her-- because I know she loves babies and I wanted her to love mine.
We talked about you and are so glad you're doing well-- and get to move to Sunny CA this summer. Almost makes it worth it.
Not easy to make Beth cry lately! Thanks a bunch Em. Love you and your mama Fae and my mama Susan. Thanks for being a great mommy to your boys...all 5! You are a fabulous mother in zion, a "mother who knows" and a example of truth and righteousness! Plus you're just plain wonderful!
