Emma Unleashed

The other day, while I was tidying around the house, I found a small pile of papers. As I read through them, they began to paint a very telling picture of an obviously traumatic moment in the life of my eldest daughter. I suspect that they were created last Saturday night, when both Nathan & I were gone and the 4 kids were home alone. Allow me to walk you through this journey of passive-aggressive anger and female domination :

(I was going to scan the pages, but unfortunately, I just discovered that my scanner is not working. So you'll have to just imagine these messages written in the scrawling pencil script of a 7-year old.)
