Emmu

My 4-year-old niece, Emma, has been learning her letter sounds and has decided that a “u” at the end of her name makes more sense than an “a” because of the sound it makes. So now she insists on writing her name “Emmu” instead of “Emma”. She sent Sterling a drawing the other day and sure enough, her name was spelled “Emmu”. I think it is so cute!


Everytime I look at it I think “Emmoo” or “Emu”. So I’ve had pictures of ostrich-like birds in my head this week. I think that Emma, who looks nothing like an Emu, was actually pretty smart to come up with this on her own. Way to go Emmu — I mean, Emma!!
