She had a great day. I am a bit tired, and am using this backspace button a LOT. Trying to make sense, forgive me, LOL.
I gave her the box. Her face lit up, and she asked "for me?" yes its all for you! Told her what I did, and she just got really excited, saying you guys are awesome. Then she took to opening the cards. We were opening cards for over an hour, then took a break, ate some cake. Then back to the cards. Took a very long time to open them all. Here are pictures of her haul.

Todays count 92 cards. The amazing thing is that there was ONLY 2 doubles! A different card each time. You guys are wonderful!

All her little gifts, stickers, and such. Not pictured is her favorite thing. She was sent a feather, a beautiful feather.

And ofcourse the fabric! She got squares, all sizes, Fat quarters all colors, some big scraps, and some yardage to make a pillowcase. Her favorite was a yellow square with crazy cats on it. She has spent the most time organizing the fabric and making plans. She is going to be busy! Thank you!

This was definitly the biggest birthday bash we have ever had, She took all her cards upstairs to her room a long with some tape, She is going to post them all on her wall! She is truely amazed, and asked how we can talk to everyone to say thankyou. Such a big heart in that little girl!

I am so proud of this group at this moment. And Megan, you have a wonderful girl. It was a true joy to be part of Emilys birthday. I bet the postman/woman was wondering what in the world is going on here!!!! Take care of yourself, and hope you have a speedy recovery!
