Advent Calendar 2017



Emma, when I asked your mom what you were going to dress like for Halloween, she said, “What does she always want to dress like?”  I immediately decided it was a cat costume.  Did Poppy like it?  I think you make a cute kitty.  Miss you.  Diva






Emma, Poppa and I are looking forward to meeting Poppy.  I am very glad you have your own cat to enjoy.  JJ and Lucy love to curl up on our laps by the fireplace or get between the computer screen and us.  We love our fur babies.  Diva

 





Emma, this is my favorite picture of my girls.  Miss you so much.  I love that you leave a little sparkle wherever you go.   Diva

 



Your great-grandmother (my mom) got to meet all her great-grandsons this summer. She will be 91 this January.  She asked about you and tells me how much she likes you.  When Henry first met my mom he was coloring a dinosaur picture.  He asked her, “Did you like Dinosaurs?”  She laughed and said, “I’m not that old!

 


Emma, I’m glad you have your mom’s spirit of adventure.  I love that you are willing to try new things.  How’s the skateboarding coming along?  Are you still thinking about competing in the Junior Spartan Games?  You are amazing.  Diva






Emma, something I just learned...Be a good listener.  Your ears will never get you in trouble.  Diva






Emma,  Our time together is never Quite Enough.  I miss you and love you to the moon and back again.  Your Diva
 




Emma, Henry keeps asking when you are coming back to see him.  Any time he sees a picture of you he says, “There’s my best friend.”  I hope he always thinks that.  You were very kind to him this summer.   Diva
 


Emma, you will be crazy happy with baby Lucy and bubbly Lyra.  They will enjoy having a big girl cousin to play with them.  Looking forward to having Diva Camp with all my grandkids.   Diva


Emma, love your Rainbow Dash hair color.  I am sure your mom probably told you about dying her hair purple for high school graduation.  I know where you get your fashion sense.  Miss you like crazy.   Diva







  Emma,  I can’t believe that you will be 11 this birthday.  Ask your mom about “now that you are 11 birthday” celebration she started when she turned 11.  If she says she doesn’t remember to ask me.  Diva







Emma, looking forward to some killer Uno family style this summer.  I miss all the laughter and crazy fun.  Diva
