Saying goodbye to five...

Tonight after we were done with stories and prayers, I pointed out to Emme and Sutty that tonight would be the last night that we would get to snuggle up to a five year-old Emme. Without skipping a beat Emme said, "Sutty will be five someday." I agreed and simply said, "Tonight is the last night that we get to snuggle with five year-old Emme."

Not going to lie, I'm getting a little sentimental and wondering how in the world our little tator bug could possibly be six tomorrow. So, I decided to ask Emme to share the best thing that happened while she was five. As I expected, she said she didn't know. I suggested a couple of things i.e. Disney World, etc. Nope. Do you know what Miss Emerson said? "My baby sister Eastyn being born."

I smiled, kissed Miss Emme's forehead and snuggled her a little tighter... wise beyond her years and an amazing gift to my life.
