Me: Em, come on move faster little snail, wash your face than I’ll come fix your hair.

Emily: I fixed my hair already.

16 years 3 months and some days later….

Emily was practicing on her dolls but I had no idea she transferred the knowledge and skills to her own hair.

I am once again amazed and proud. 2014 has been so far a good life skills learning year for Emily and I will do my best to update you on all of those milestones who look so small and overdue to the outside world but you and I know, they are tremendous achievements in Emily’s world!

What happens at the dining room table…

Once in awhile we have dinner, all at the same time. Due to our hectic schedules, we barely ate together, seems like there is always someone sleeping.

Maybe a month or so ago, we were sitting at the table, chatting along and suddenly Emily started sneezing which triggered a fart.

I said : “Emily ?!?!?”

Emily said : “Did you hear that?”

To which Jon answered : “You snarted!”

Emily looked at him with a questioning look.

Jon explained… A sneeze combined with a fart…. A snart!

Emily smiled and high fived her dad!!!

An there you have it, dinner conversation at my house!
