1. She is lovely. And I’m relieved to see that she got past that whole drooling thing!

2. Certainly I can’t, as bodily functions still amuse the pee out of me.

4. Even her nails are beautiful! Every little inch of her is perfect! I’m going to be an even bigger mess when my little darling gets to be that big. Unfortunately, my Lady Bug’s favorite things to talk about right now are bodily functions. I’m hoping she grows out of this soon. I’d hate to see the kind of guys she would attract with that kind of talk. Maybe Emma can give my 4 year old some lessons in appropriate lady-like behavior.

6. Thank you for all of the nice compliments. To answer some of the questions –
   We were going to a wedding
   She wears an adult size 7 so you easily buy the same shoes, try Zappos
   Yes, she is very wholesome, not an easy task on the Chicago north shore.

10. Coming from the mother of an almost 6 year-old daughter who does Amsterdam-quality peep shows in her bedroom window EVERY SINGLE NIGHT after she gets out of the bathtub, I am so envying Emma’s mom. Sweet? Wholesome? I’ve failed miserably. Emma’s mom… can you give me some pointers???

    Emma’s mom, I assume you must be attractive as your daughter is quite the elegant young lady. I checked with CJ, my son, and those hormones have not kicked in yet, so he isn’t interested in any girl, or Emma, just yet. My days of matchmaking are in the future.

15. Just for clarification, you would pronounce that “Pree-eye.” Yes, I’m already into cocktail hour, why do you ask?

16. I was trying to think of a tactful way to say…what SC said. I think we can chalk it up to the new technology of the emailing a photo to the blog, somehow. At least that’s what I’m telling myself.
    Speaking of grammar/spelling, I say that the plural of Prius is Prii. Like, “Look, there’s a whole dealership full of Prii.” Who’s with me?

22. She is the cutest thing ever! And look at that hair, how pretty is that color? I bet if she hung out at a beauty parlor every one that came in there would ask for her color.
    Where was she going all dressed up? Was it a special occasion?
    She really is precious. Don’t you feel like buying her a charm bracelet and then filling it up with charms together?

23. So very cute. And those shoes? I want a pair.
    Amen KW… I have a ten, almost eleven, year old daughter and chaperoned a field trip last week with her class. I was shocked and horrified and the hoochy clothing, boy talk and general squirreliness that was going on. By the girls and boys alike. The best compliment I have ever received from a teacher was when she told me my daughter “wasn’t into all that nonsense girl stuff. It’s goes on around here but she ignores it and the other girls know not to even try to involve her because she won’t act like them.”
    Good job sister and brother-in-law of June.
