Emilia Grace Zupancich new arrival

Emilia Grace Zupancich

I WAS BORN: March 27, 2012, in Abbott Northwestern Hospital in Minneapolis.

MY PARENTS ARE: Leah and Troy Zupancich of Minneapolis.

MY BROTHER IS: Nathan, 23 months.

MY GRANDPARENTS ARE: Gene and Pam Clark of Duluth and Robert and Barbara Zupancich of Tomah, Wis.

MY GREAT-GRANDPARENTS ARE: Rose and Gene Katzer of Georgetown, Texas; Virginia Clark of Stevens Point, Wis.; and the late Gerald Clark, Josephine and John Zupancich and Viola and Ben Kueter.

MY PARENTS CHOSE THIS NAME BECAUSE: They always thought my name was beautiful and chose it even before my brother was born. Daddy especially liked my name because he could give me the nickname “Emma.”

PARENTS’ WISH OR ADVICE: Live your life to the fullest. Always be true to yourself and live life without regret.

SOMETHING SPECIAL: After four boy grandchildren, you are the first girl to be born on both sides of the family. Both grandpas were very excited for you to arrive, since there hasn’t been a girl born since Mommy and your auntie Jodi!
