Other news...

Emily is back...ALIVE and well.

She made it through her most recent tramatic event.

Did you know...

that Lucy wanted an American Girl doll too from Santa last year, but didn't get one.

We had a deal...

Santa would bring her a doll with long brown hair and brown eyes, like her own, as long as she stopped cutting hair. That included any and all hair.

The deal was definantly shaken when she cut her own hair for the second time that same year.

Then a month before Christmas...Emily's hair was snipped against her will.

Kandus was very forgiving.

But, the deal was broken.

It broke my heart when I had to tell her that she would not be getting a doll like her big sister's for Christmas.

She cried and cried. And yes, she was sorry.

Instead she would be receiving a surprise.(Which she still loves by the way.)

But this year...

Little Lucy Lou just might be getting a brown haired and brown eyed doll, that looks just like her

for Christmas.

a crime scene.

A crime scene recreated following last nights events...

Emily was found exactly like this Sunday night at approximately 8:03 p.m.

First reactions from the children...

Lucy immediately tried to make things better by covering Emily up and telling Kandus, "The hospital might have to take off her head."

Kandus thought she was dreaming...and exclaimed, "This is the worst day of my life!!"

Our investigation leads us to believe that she was first brought to this place.

Surprisingly enough we caught the perpetrator single handedly with his mouth full of fluff.

Immediately upon conviction he was muzzled for his bad behavior.

As for Emily...

She will be okay.
