I had to laugh at Emma today. We went to Great-grandma Eda’s and Great -grandpa Don’s house for lunch and to take over Eda’s mother’s day present. Emma makes herself at home anywhere we go. She really enjoys visiting Don and Eda and loves exploring around their house. She talked Grandpa Don into taking her outside for a bit and swindled extra ice cream from Grandma Eda. When we were getting ready to leave Eda was sending some jeans home for Cassie to go through but Emma wanted to carry the bag which was way to heavy for her. Eda got another bag out and put one pair of jeans into it, telling Emma it will be her bag to carry. Emma carried that bag around the house and when we were getting ready to leave I told her that we should put her baby doll and tractor in the bag too. When I opened the bag I noticed she had “shopped” at grandma Eda’s house! She had put in a gold hour glass and a little piano clock from the living room. I am sure glad I had opened the bag before we left! Eda really got a kick out of that. She gave her a little wooden decorative box to put in the sack to take home. Cassie was always like that too, needing to take something home. Silly girls! She also thought she should be able to drive when Brianna and Emma were getting ready to go. She threw such a fit when Brianna was trying to get her buckled into the car seat. I went in and got her little steering wheel toy so she could drive too. She is too funny!
