Congratulations Steven! And other random thoughts

Congratulations Steven on making TSgt....E-6! We are all very proud of him...it has been a long time coming. He celebrated by doing car repairs and finding out how expensive dental work for a two-year-old is....yikes. 

Emma is a fabulous workout partner...more like assistant. She brings me my towel when I look sweaty, then brings me my water. She keeps it all lined up and looking neat. She also helps me count my reps. She encourages me by saying, 'try again!' And she even know where her biceps and triceps are. Some days she even works out with me...other days she just plays. 

I think Emma is going through a phase...one where she is very clingy. She wants me to hold her and snuggle with her all the time. Tonight after nap she didn't want to go to dance class, just snuggled in my lap for an hour. Maybe after our trip she realized she needed some Mommy time. She does not appear to be sick...just savoring her last two binkies.
