I don't want to forget...

Emerson refuses to call Aunt Ackie's house "home."  If we are at Mom's, and I say, "Are you ready to go home?" her immediate response is, "Not home. Auntie Ackie's house."  This is without fail every time. 

When we drive by the house, Emerson has to wave at the house (well, we all do...she has even started fussing at Eliot for not waving) and say, "Get better soon house! We miss you! We love you!"  

When Emerson first looked in the front door, her reaction was, "There's no toys in there." 

It took almost a month for Emerson to mention Moe. Even after talking about cats and pets, she never said a word. Today, though, she was talking to Uncle Michael about Molly and she said, "I have a cat. His name is Moe. He's at our house."  It makes me both sad and relieved to know she hasn't forgotten about him completely.
