My Precious Emma

The past 24 hours have been nothing but drama on top of drama! 

Jon, Emma and I were just hanging out on a lazy Sunday afternoon.  Emma was playing with her new hamster friends, Sunshine and Hammy.  Jon was laying on the couch watching a movie while still recovering from surgery.  I was sitting in my favorite lounge chair finishing up a few orders.  And then it happened.  We all heard the sound at once and jumped up to see what it was.... a gurgling sound coming from the bathroom.... this can't be good...

So I step into the bathroom and screamed.  I'll spare you the disgusting details and just say there was raw sewage coming up through all of the drains in the bathroom. 

Dis-gust-ing ! 

So we called a plumber... knowing we'd have to sacrifice our first born child to pay for the Sunday afternoon emergency call... and Jon jumped into action.  I love my husband.  =0) 

All the water to the house turned off while the plumbers started searching for the problem and making repairs, I decided to go to my brother's house to wash our laundry. 

But wait!  Ummm where is my wallet?.....

2 hours later..... wallet nowhere to be found, plumbers STILL working, and tensions are running very high...

So I decide to go do laundry anyway... I get Emma and the laundry packed up in the car and off we go.  I'm so close to tears and Emma says to me

"Momma, what's more important; money, God, or your family?"  WOW.  I broke down and said "God is more important Baby." 

Emma says, "And then what is more important, your kids or the money?"  and I said "My kids of course!"

Emma says, "Well don't worry about the money then Mommy, you can have my lemonade stand money until you find your wallet."

WOW... She really just smacked things back into perspective for me.  I love my precious baby girl.  =0)
