Emma is so funny. She does all kinds of odd and fun things. Today we went to Gillette to see Cassie and have her color my hair. Emma loved playing the hair stylist, combing and “fixing” my hair. She thought it was really funny when Cassie waxed Brianna’s eyebrows. She really liked being able to walk all around the beauty shop. Cassie had gotten her some fake tattoos. Emma picked out the one she wanted and Cassie put it on her arm. She thought she was big stuff with tattoos like Aunt Cassie. Cassie would rub her tattoo and then show Emma hers. Emma would rub Cassie's tattoo then rub the fake one on her arm and say something, what we don't know. We went over to Cassie’s apartment afterwards. Emma made herself at home checking out cupboards, closets and everything she could there. When we tried to leave, Emma was trying to take Cassie’s phone with her. When Brianna got that away, she grabbed a hold of a candle, wanting to take it with us. Brianna got that away and the only thing between Emma and the door was a long mirror hung on the wall. Emma tried to take it off the wall, wanting to take it with us “have this?” I laughed and said she takes after Cassie in so many ways. Cassie use to have to bring something from Grandma’s house each time she left. Cassie found a little Hug Me doll and gave that to Emma to bring home with her. Emma was so happy with that, she carried it all the way the car then held on to it until she fell asleep on the way home.

We stopped in Moorcroft and visited Jarrod at the bowling alley. He was bowling on a Monday night bowling league and it was the first time Emma ever seen a bowling alley. She really was enthralled with it. Jarrod stood in front of her talking to her and she pushed him aside so she could watch. She wasn’t to happy when we left.

Shopping is getting interesting now. She found a pair of pajamas she really liked and grabbed them saying “want this” Of course she got them… Grandma’s can spoil, it is allowed! I will have to put a stop to it if she gets bad enough to throw a fit when (and if) she is told “No”

There isn’t another kid around who is loved more by everyone she meets, that is for sure. Even my brother says she is one child that just seems to have a glow about her.
