I have been trying to write this post for three days now.  I’m not exactly sure what is causing my writer’s block, but, then again, if I knew, I suppose I wouldn’t have this problem.  My problem is that I know what message I want to convey, but I’m not exactly sure how to say it.  I have tried and tried to put down what it feels like to me that my firstborn has just turned 16, but I have been unable to find the words.  I am inspired by all of my girks, and my mind usually overflows with words, feelings, and thoughts about them.  Not this time.

Because of that, I neglected posting this on her actual birthday (December 7th), and I am finally posting it tonight.

Emma is 16. Wow.

I’ve decided that instead of writing some crazy long essay about her and my feelings, that I would just post some of my favorite pictures of her.

The Divine Miss Em . . .  She melts my heart, makes me laugh, and has blessed my life more than she’ll ever know.

I love you, Emma Kate!
