I just read your request & don't know if it's too late to contribute. I met Emily and her family 5 years ago in Chesapeake. I love Emily because she is not only fun and creative, but very down-to-earth. It's great to be able to keep up with her via her blog. Her thoughts are often my own, just worded so, so much better! Thanks for sharing your life, Emily & happy 30th!
