Phases, Stages, Faces?

Dun-du-du-dun!! Please brace yourself for the daily phases/stages/faces of Emma! Semi bipolar, I assume. Her recent mixed feelings have given my entire family whiplash..what a character! It's all fun and games until...well, you know.
1) Angry/Didn't-Get-What-I-Want: This is a classic! We've been toppled over by this face for the past five years (did I mention that Em turned five?). It's her angry face, or simply the didn't-get-what-i-wanted face that really leaved us confused. How does she pull that off? 2) Ditsy!: this one is something we exhibit almost every day. If not more, of course. Emma's extremely psychotic (in a very good way!). This face just proves that she is "ditsy and quirky and beyond girly"... we usually get this face when she's trying to get out of something.

3) The Emma Face: This is just Emma being.. Emma..
There's only three?? Well, trust me, there's MANY more.. I just don't have the time and energy. Oops!

Some Emma-isms?
1) "no mommy. it was the baby--not me!"
2) "i just want somebody to understand me!"
3) "addie--get me an orange or you're FIRED"
4) "addie, your phone wants you!"
5) "get that corn outta my face!" (that one is from Nacho Libre. We're admirable.)

Personality

We've been facing a *tiny* problem.. with - yes - **Emma**

No, no, not a problem.. actually, quite the opposite! More of a.. hmmmm.... stage.

The Drama Stage......

If you have younger children at the age of about 4-5, you have either encountered or are soon to encounter this stage.

I warn you.. be careful what you say.

But that's nothing. Emma's always been a drama queen. What awakens us, (or, well, me) is the faces and expressions!

Don't beleive me? Well, then, go right ahead and take a very close look.


Exhibit A ~ Cheeky, cocky, bratty, prissy, popular, self-centered, full of herself. (It's the best!)

Exhibit B ~ Angered, frustrated, *not-getting-her-way*, unenthusiastic, or her normal face :'(


And finally, .. Exhibit C ~ Excited, motionless, leaping inside, our little princess.





Did I not tell you? Well, if you see the signs, just remember:

I warned YOU
