Blessed

Emma and her cousin Kate!

Another amazing joy in my life is watching Emma dance.  She has danced for five years at Liberty Dance and has grown so much as a dancer.  I couldn't stop smiling as I watched her dance today.  Two years ago she had to miss her recital due to her being so sick (pre tonsil removal) and I remember during her hospital stays Justin and I just praying she could feel better and be a 'normal' little girl.  I am so thankful and beyond words for how blessed we are.  I pray for those families out there that have children that can't experience 'normal' due to illness or other circumstances.  Hug your babies extra tight and give them an extra kiss at bedtime.  Live in the moment and embrace the simple joys in life!
