Countdown to Turning 5 years old!

This is Really how Emma felt about all her pictures!! ha

Over two days I took over 500 pictures.... and I still did not get the picture I really wanted. I have already bribed her so that probably wouldn't work again unless I up my bribe, but I am going to try it one more time! (I haven't told her yet though) ;0)

Here is the link to Flickr for the rest of the shuffle I couldn't dare to delete:

Emma announced to her preschool class that they were going to 'HER P-PA's AIRPORT' for their field trip! ;0)

She was all smiles when she got to go for a ride while all of her classmates looked on. The best we can remember the last time she flew with P-Pa she was about 6 months old. She was in awe! He flew her right over our house. At first we did not think she saw it, but then all of the sudden she sat straight up and started pointing!

Needless to say.... she was the envy of her classmates when she returned!

Not just my own, but others too!

There is one right now that I want to share with you. It is such a touching and beautiful story.
Nathan is a fun amateur photographer and his picture taking caught my attention, but the story of his family is far more captivating!

Last night before I went to bed, I read that a set of lungs had been donated and the mother was on her way to surgery.

I have to admit that I didn't sleep well thinking about this family and how much we take our health for granted each and every day.
