If I could have created my perfect oldest daughter, I would have made her pretty, smart, helpful, hardworking, spiritually sensitive, kind, talented, capable, articulate and fun.
I would have made...
Emma.
(9 years ago today, I got very, very lucky.)

Man, look at those baby blues in the pool picture! Seriously, Wow!
I love that Madeline costume, too :)
Happy, Happy, Birthday Emma!!!!
Can you believe you have a 9 year old, Jessica?
Happy Birthday Emma! You have always been so adorable!
Happy Birthday Emma! What cute pictures!!
Happy Birthday Emma! Jessica--I can really see you (and a little Jane) in some of those shots! Very cute girls. All of you. :)
Oh, she's ADORABLE!! I love all those cute pics. The one where she's holding the cake looks like your younger daughter in that pic a few posts back. so cute!
What a special post.
That is EXACTLY how I feel about my oldest daughter (now 11). EXACTLY.
Looks like we're the lucky ones.
BTW...In answer to your question, found you through your comments on a couple of my friends' blogs.
Happy Birthday Emma!! What a cutie she is. Yes, definately a keeper.
Any girl is a dream girl. Oh, one day I hope to have a girl.
Happy Birthday Miss Emma!
So cute and I hope she has a happy birthday! Oldest daughters are so special.
Happy Birthday Emma!!! I love the pictures. She really is so cute!
Was she an amazing fast dancer in utero?
What a sweetie!
Happy Birthday Emma!!! She is the ideal first chid!
Happy Birthday, Emma!
You're mom IS very lucky to have you.
Sweet post, Jessica!
That's so cute! Happy Birthday Emma! We think you are a great neice too! You need to talk to your parents about moving closer to Dallas (or at least bringing you to come visit!)
Emma you're eyes look SOOOO beautiful in that swimming picture! WOw!
Happy Birthday Emma!!
I forgot our daughters share the same birthday! Happy birthday to Em and Em...
Wow, she is so darn cute. If Ethan had been a girl we would have named her Emma. Such a cute name.
She is beautiful. Do you think she wants to meet up at BYU and marry my ten-year-old son in about 11 years? Just asking.
She is just beautiful. Happy Birthday, only one more to go until you are double numbers.
Happy Birthday, Emma! Can you come over for awhile and teach lessons to your cousins?
Happy Birthday Emma! We're still holding out for "fast dance" lessons for Isabel and Milo...March, here we come! :)
She is beautiful. I hope that you BOTH have a great day. Happy Birthday Emma!
love the madeleine costume and the blue eyes that match the pool. adorable!
send me your email address again chica. i can't find it anywhere.
I totally agree- she is perfect little girl (total mini me!) and you are lucky to have her.
Hey, pretty Emma,
Happy Birthday! We love you and have tried to call you today, but no luck yet. We will keep trying.
xoxoxo
G and G
Is that baby already wearing a bow on day one of life? I admire your dedication.
Awww, what a sweetie!
I thought I was looking at YOU when I saw that pic of her with the blue blue eyes. Gorgeous genes!! She's adorable. This is a sweet tribute, Jessica.
Emma, I remember when you were just a baby. You had cute clothes then, and you have them now. I hope you had a wonderful day. Don't let your mom stop you from turning 10. She's going to try.
What a doll! Happy Birthday Emma and Jess, you deserve your dream girl because you are a fantastic mom.
what a perfect post... and lucky you!
AW, that's a very sweet post. She's a darling girl.
Happy Birthday, Emma.
A great tribute to a darling daughter.
Happy Bday Emma!
Emma is a doll -- and she looks so much like you! That is Jessica, not Ryan!
And I loved your summary of church basketball. Ditto. Although Josh's games are usually so late that I prefer to stay home, put the kids to bed early and have a night to myself!
P.S. I can't believe your old enough to have a 9 year old!!!
Emma is so grown up, I just cannot believe it. She was my flower girl! I love Emma, she is sassy, adorable, smart and I agree with Paige, a mini me of you!!
I will always have a special place in my heart for Emma because she loves my black beans and even told me so herself . . . . if only my kids could be such great eaters. I just adore Emma, she truly is an amazing big sister.
I hope she read that. Very sweet. She will remember this, even when she's sixteen and annoyed with you.
