Robb got Emmy into hockey using a few of his connections and some help from Uncle Jeff. Emmy is 5 weeks behind but many other parents of hockey kids and coaches have come up to praise her for her great attitude. They have told Robb she is doing great although after 2 days of hockey she was falling more than skating. She did skate 15 feet on her own and had a smile on her face the entire time. She loved hockey but I'm not that excited about entering into a sport I know nothing about. Bobby and I cheered for her and Bobby was looking forward to a future where he could join her out there.
This past Sunday was the Xmas show at church. Emmy and Bobby held hands up in the front and sang their little hearts out. I was very proud. When they were called up to the front I asked Emmy to help Bobby up to the front. Well, Bobby didn't require Emmy's help I guess and raced up to the front ahead of her with Emmy trailing behind yelling, "Bobby I want to help you!"
Emmy had a Xmas party at Kindergarten yesterday where she sang songs in the music room for all of us parents and then Robb and I helped her to make a gingerbread house. It was very fun to see her in her element. She sang and did all the actions to the songs very animatedly from her spot in front and in between songs she used her hands to make the shape of a heart and then pointed to me. I have the sweetest little girl in the world for sure! Her dad helped her frost the gingerbread house and then she covered (no spot left without candy) the entire thing with candy. Her friend Lauren took a picture with her then.
Bobby and I visited Grandma Pearl in the Rehab facility on Sunday. Bobby sang, danced and gave Grandma lots of hugs to help her feel better. He is such a nice boy and he really loves Grandma Pearl. He has been saying prayers every night (Emmy has too) to help her feel better. Last night when tucking Bobby in and saying our prayers he really made me laugh. We play a game where he tries to hold on to my arm and not let me go and since I am pretty strong I always break free. I challenge him before I try to break loose and always ask him if tonight is the night he will be able to hold on to me. He always thinks he can and so last night I asked him if he wanted to bet his Xmas presents on it that he would be able to hold on to me. He didn't waste time thinking on it and quickly answered, "Yes, but I want to bet Emmy's Xmas presents instead." That really was smart but I did tell him he couldn't bet his sister's gifts.
