eBug's Birthday Affirmations

 Sally:

1. I love how Emily is so loyal. She is loyal to her family, her friends, and her co-workers. If you are in her circle, you are set for life. She is the definition of a true friend to so many people - even the Asian ladies at the factories. She gives people the benefit of the doubt always, and is able to see people and situations with nonjudgemental perspective always. She is sensitive, knows when to keep a secret and when to share one. This makes her an amazing sister to Lucy and me. If I had to bury a body she would be the first person I would call. 

2. I love how Emily always knows how to make me laugh. She doesn’t hold much back and it is so refreshing and hilarious. My favorite moments with her are when she says something totally out of the blue that you can tell she’s been thinking about for a long time. She is not afraid to be exactly who she is. I love her quirkiness, spontaneity, and dance moves. Thanks for keeping us all on our toes! 


Taylor:



1. Emily is so good at lightening the mood in any situation. She doesn't take life (or herself) too seriously and finds humor in the small things. It is fun to be around her when she is with the family and really gets on a roll. She is fun loving and adventurous, always up for a good time. She helps keep Sally sane when life gets serious, and I am especially thankful for that. 

2. From Savannah to New York, Emily has been a great hostess for Sally and me. On our several trips to Savannah she introduced us to people, places, and things we would never have experienced otherwise. It was fun to live like a local. In New York, E has carved out a neat niche in the fashion world and introduced us to her work in the Garment District. I never would have had the experiences in either city without Emily.


Mom:

1. I admire how Emily has worked hard and made a place for herself in her job and in NYC. She has made new friends, nurtured old friends and tackled and solved all kinds of issues at work with determination and kindness. Keep smiling Emily, you’re going places!


2. I love how Emily calls me every morning and most evenings on her way to / from work. It is so special to get a view of her life. Her sense of humor is priceless and she starts my day with a smile. Love you Em!


Lucy:


1. One thing I love about Em is her confidence and her ability to bring out confidence in other people. She is always unapologetically herself in the very best way. She is the life of the party but always makes sure everyone around her feels welcomed and comfortable. I’m so thankful for the many times when she’s helped boost my confidence and taught me how to be as cool as she is!!

2. I love how passionate Emily is about the things she cares about. It has been so cool to be her little sister and watch her work hard at her many talents and rise to every occasion. She knows what she wants and she works incredibly hard to achieve her goals. I’m so proud to call her my big sister. I love you Meme!!  



Dad:

1. I am super proud to see how happy Emily is with her career path and how much she has achieved in a short time in The Big Apple. I love it that she found a home at Hatch and that she can get so many diverse and unique experiences in the fashion business by working for a smaller company. Keep it up Emily and great things will continue to happen for your career.


2. I love how Emily has found a special friend in Kyle and how those two enjoy so many different types of New York experiences . . . Yankees vs Red Sox, Chipping and Putting, Yale Club, Rangers Hockey, Restaurants, Parks, and the beauty of up State NY.
