My Pretty Girl...15 months already


Above: Simply gorgeous...and getting so big.

Below: Check out the almost pigtails.


She's pitching a fit and I am thinking, I need to get a picture of this for my Blog. She's just too cute for words even when she having a tantrum moment.



Ok, I have so much to say that I am not telling you all, and it’s a long story…for another post. I still haven’t sorted through the Holland Tulip pictures, but when I do I will still post them.

However, I cannot deprive people of Emeline’s cuteness. Thus, I am posting these pics. She is 15 months old already, and learning new things every day. She is really starting to understand English. Also, I have to say that Emeline has the best hair in the world. It is gorgeous and she has lots of it. People think she is much older, because of her hair and because she is so coordinated (she walks and dances like a champ). Needless to say I am putting all those bows to good use! She is generally a good sport about it, and I am having a blast. Yes, I am loving it.

Oh, and she threw the cordless phone in the bath tub—and yes, the tub was full o’ water at the time!

Lastly, please pray Chris as he preaches tomorrow. Also, next Saturday, May 31 Chris and I both speak at a ladies breakfast for some churches here in our city. Please pray for us both. We have to talk for an hour—in German. Pray for wisdom in what to prepare and for us to have a good German language day on Saturday so that these ladies can understand our Southern American accents auf Deutsch.

Missing so many of you...and sad that you are all not getting to see my girl and the little things she does each day. I hope this blog helps just a little...at least it helps me.

Hello from European Russia! I hope that you had a good German language day on yesterday! I wish that I could talk in Russian for an hour---I'm quite impressed!
Your daughter is absolutely beautiful! Thanks for befriending me on facebook so that I could "see" you love her and watch her grow. Feel free to hop over to my blog as well, if you like.
