Brought to You by Emersen

Emersen is into promotion. Consider this one of her "favorite things" blog posts, inspired by Oprah, of course. The Kentucky Wildcats are obviously on the list. She can cheer her own version of "Go Cats!" with a fist pump during basketball games. She hasn't learned to distinguish between basketball games so twice now she has cheered for the CATS during Duke games on TV. And that's definitely okay.

Call this a poor man's mirror. Emersen loves checking herself out, while she's doing something, in the reflection of the fireplace. She'll bounce on her scooter toy, sit in a chair or just smile at herself. In this picture, she's just showing a little appreciation to her friend...or the friend she sees in the fireplace.

Finally, and because she really doesn't have a choice, Turning Point Church. More specifically, the water bottles we give out. Good chew toy apparently. She was hanging out while I made dinner and played with the water bottle. I thought I'd maximize on her cuteness and do some free advertising for church.

If you've been around me or Wes in the past few months, I'm sure you're aware we are part of a church (off Leestown Road) launching THIS SUNDAY! With only a few days to go, the excitement is just increasing every day. It's finally here. Emersen, as you can see by the above picture, is SERIOUS about this.

Emersen can vouch for one of the pastors, Josh, as they have a special friendship. She'll reach for him at church. Apparently, she even likes his cologne....

As you may know, toddlers like to point to express themselves, their wants and their needs. Or maybe she just got the wonderfully feminine quality of "talking with your hands" and it's showing itself  early. But I feel certain she's either saying "I am Emersen Cooper and I endorse this message" or "I want YOU to be at Turning Point Church on Sunday morning!" Either way...she has spoken.
