A Conversation With Emmie...

Emmie: Who is John McCain?

Dad: He's a guy that is running for President.

Emmie: Why is he doing that?

Dad: I guess he aspires to be President of the United States...

Emmie: Does he know Jesus?

Dad: I don't know - I don't think he does.

Emmie: Well, who is going to tell him?

Dad: We need to pray that God will raise up someone who can share the Gospel with him.

Emmie: What about you?

Dad: Well, I don't know him and probably won't ever have a chance to talk to him.

Emmie: What about Michael Phelps?

(What? Where does she come up with this stuff? I'm not sure why she assumes Michael Phelps is a Christian, but I guess she thinks he might have a chance to talk to the President.)

Happy Birthday Emmie!

Sweet Emmie turned 5 on August 26... and she has been celebrating for a couple of weeks. Her cousins couldn't come to her Chick-Fil-A party so we had a get-together at Granny's a week earlier. Last Friday, she had a party at Chick-Fil-A with most of our church family (we're a small church plant, so yes, almost the entire church was there)! Daddy Mac and Mimi were able to drive up from GA to be a part of the festivities and PawPaw and Granny came as well.

Emmie has grown up so much this last year. She had such a kind heart and spirit and loves to ask questions. Her favorite TV shows are Home Cookin With Paula Deen and Rachel Ray. She loves to play 'Mommy' to her babies and color creative pictures. She got a new Bitty Baby for her birthday so her first one would have a sister (although she can't have anyore sisters - had to nip that in the bud). She then informed me that she would have to get 2 babies dressed every morning! She exclaimed to me, "Mommy, that's going to be CRAZY!" Don't I know it?

Here are some pics:
