E- Empathetic to the core
M- Memorable and Magical
M- Music to your soul
A- Absolutely wonderful
Sweeter than an M&M (but not the peanut kind because she doesn’t like them). If you stumble upon an Emma, BEWARE: Your stomach will fill with a thousand fluttering mariposas at first glance; her contagious smile, calming presence, big brown eyes and enormous heart will get you right from the start; and her spontaneity and excitement for the little things in life (like carefully crafting tiny origami dragons) will inspire you to get out and try something new yourself. You may have only known her for a few months, but she’ll quickly prove to you that she is one of a kind. Win her over with some churros, a Ghibli movie, or a gentle melody on the piano… she’ll fall right asleep. Watch as she’ll shy away and timidly smile when you give her a compliment or tell her how full she makes you feel. Never dare to touch her toes or remove her glasses, you’ll have it coming for you if you do. Emmas are a rare find, especially those that accept your ridiculous language mistakes (like « faire du pipi »). Tell her that she’s breathtakingly beautiful inside and out, because they easily forget. And, MOST importantly, remind them of their courage and strength; they make you want to become the best version of yourself.
