30 August 1894
My Darling Emery, Today we ventured out of the house to visit your papa at work, and he was incredibly excited to see us. (I believe you more so than me, but that’s only because you darling, have captured both of our hearts.) Of course everyone cooed over you, how could they not when you are so tiny and precious? But it was your papa you were the most excited to see, offering him your very first smile. I will admit I am a tad bit jealous, but I understand why.
Your papa is an amazing, hardworking man who would hang the stars and the moon for you every night if they were to ever disappear if he thought it would make you happy. He is wrapped around your finger, just as I am, little girl. I hope you smile at him like that every day, because it shows me that you are happy. That is all I hope for you, Emery, is that you live a happy life.
With all my love,
Your mama
