It took forever for Miss Emily to lose teeth. She was six before the first one fell out. and then she became the sharkgirl, growing new teeth in underneath her old teeth. in the last little while, she has gone on a tooth-losing rampage, earning herself about $80 in cash. i know. i know. Well, while I was away, her daddy took her to the store to make her dreams come true.รย My 8-year-old is the official owner of this…
one day my life will be quiet again.

Her first project on the guitar was teaching herself to play edelweiss. I swear. She’s used the guitar all but three times and is playing edelweiss. WHERE DID THIS CHILD COME FROM?
speaking of everyone’s favorite austrian theme song…Emily got her part in The Sound of Music last night. After her initial disappointment that she was not, in fact, going to play Gretl, or Leisel, or Maria, she seemed to be excited about her 9 lines and her opening-the-show solo (another solo!) of The Sound of Music and her being in almost every single song and scene. She is playing a nun.
Of one thing i am certain. my daughter is going to look awesome in her veil and habit. and, she’ll have herself a Halloween costume to boot (bonus!) and who doesn’t love a toothless nun with a guitar?
