Dear sweet Emma,
My 4 year old granddaughter Emolyn & I love to play with Play-Doh! I finally found white Play-Doh so she could make pie dough in her little pie tins. Often times she's off and playing... and I am too busy finishing my latest creation to even notice. ha! I love Play-Doh!
Great 1st blog post Emma! I look forward to more posts!
Emolyn's sister Elsie (18 months) calls Emolyn "Emma". I always think of you when Elsie calls her that. Oh, and Emolyn & Elsie's twin baby brothers are going to be born in two weeks!!! Can you imagine!!!

I would say your first blog is AWESOME, Emma! I love your playdoh critters and your Spring pictures are beautiful. It looks like you have your Mom's eye and talent for photography and now blogging! I see that you took them on a walk with your Nana, what a special memory this is for both of you. I'm in Co. Springs visiting my two yr. old granddaughter (I live in Texas) and am having a great time making memories with her! Thanks for sharing with us.

Nice work Emma! Seriously impressive. We play with play-doh a lot around here...next time you're over here, we need to show you our ice cream factory. And I think you and I need to go out and take pictures together. Love you, Aunt Kristen.

Emma,
Thanks for sharing a bit of your life through your photos.
Posted by: Kristi Lonheim | April 15, 2012 at 09:53 PM
Go Emma! Love you Spring photos - made me want to walk right into them and enjoy the scenery. Your little lizzards are gorgeous. :)You should try it with modeling clay one day (like Fimo or Sculpey) - then you could bake them and have them for keeps. :)
Posted by: Seaweedandraine | April 15, 2012 at 11:31 PM
Thank you so much Emma for sharing your critters. They're all beautifully colored and made me smile. Thank God for the changing of seasons and painting our winter landscape with striking and soft colors all together. Doesn't spring just make you want to dance? It does mine. Looking forward to hearing from you again soon =)

Get this i am 64 years old! so we are talking about 1957! a million years ago! I still smile thinking about it. Loved your blog- do more! stay sweet honey-love from Ohio.

Good for you, Emma. You brightened my night with your colorful creatures and spring photographs. I hope you will become a "regular" in Blog-land, that mystical city:))

You've got MAD art skills, Emma! Beautiful work!
Posted by: Karen Booker Schelhaas | April 18, 2012 at 06:52 AM
Your Play-Doh creations are so cute and fun and the photos are outstanding! You are definitely creative. I'd also like to suggest that you try some Fimo or Sculpey clay so you can bake it and make it permanent. You can also make jewelry from it by making small versions of your cute creations! Just remember to leave a hole for a string or chain. (Maybe you've already done this.) Thanks for sharing on the blog!

Great post Emma! I used to use clay to make magnets for my friends, but your lizards are so much cuter than anything I ever made (I usually did foods, yum!)! Your pictures of spring brought me hope, I live in Oregon and we have barely seen ANY sunshine this spring, but now I can enjoy your beautiful pictures until it comes!
Posted by: Hayley | April 19, 2012 at 08:33 PM

Emma, you show great promise of being an artist. Not only in the form of sculpting, but also in the photographic area too. I loved each of your characters in play dough, and I truly enjoyed seeing your world through your camera lense. Keep growing through your creative gifts that God has blessed you with. Some day He may use you to do great and wonderful things in His Name. I like that you are using the blogging tools to show us yourself and your talents.
