You did such a wonderful job on Emma's story. The pictures were perfection, the words were prose, and the feeling came straight from your heart to mine. Thanks so much for sharing this intimate and sacred moment from your family with ours. I now forgive you for not calling me back about going to dinner Saturday night. and I feel you are probably only about 1 week away from that 1.3million!!
