Anyways so I saw episode 3 of season 2 and I completely forgot about that episode and that Snow-Emma scene gave me so many feels. I had tears in my eyes, especially seeing what's in store for future and all.
The whole episode was beautiful and funny in a way how Emma was trying to take in-charge (because she is not used to letting people take decisions for her and never being not in-charge of something). And the way she insists Snow on trusting Cora and then uses gun🤣🤣 Oh Emma...sweetie, you are as stupid in FTL as Hook is in our world 🤣 (Which reminds me, I really need more Hook vs Modern World scenes 🤣). But gah that scene in her nursery was so adorable and beautiful.

This is beautiful because like I told you how Emma felt her whole life. Lonely, abandoned and one question she always had "why would her parents give her up?"...and that feeling of being an orphan. And now she is seeing what her parents, what her mother gave up for her happiness...and why it was her best chance. The thing with Emma is she understands now, and she forgives them but she can't suddenly change the feeling of being an orphan. She loves Snowing and this moment beautifully reflects that. But it is just now. Snowing would have to get rid of that feeling of being a lost girl in season 3 like snow said in episode 2 of s3. And they will...which will be beautiful.
Just like Emma doesn't know how to be their kid, Snowing (especially Snow) doesn't know how to be parents. That's because they all have two personalities to them. Emma has the role of savior and lost girl. Snow has Snow White and then cursed one as Mary Margaret. Emma connected to Mary Margaret in season 1...and that is the person who can read and understand Emma, for whom everything was grey. But now Snow is also Snow and her judgement gets in the way of knowing her daughter. While for Charming it's different. Emma bonded with David as Charming...and he understands her.
You would see that in season 3. After Emma kissed Hook, Emma tries to talk about that to Snow but Snow thinks that Emma was feeling guilty for betraying Neal...but Emma wanted to talk about what she was feeling towards Hook, try to figure that out. Snow doesn't understand that first love is not always true love. Mary Margaret understands Emma but Snow doesn't.
While David, he can read Emma...and that is why we got that moment in episode 10 of Daddy Charming and Baby Emma!! Emma brings Hook up in that moment but he also knows her enough and her walls so he makes joke out of it. They both have tunnel vision and so they can understand each other.
But this doesn't take away from the fact that they are family and THEY LOVE EACH OTHER...AND ARE GRATEFUL OF EACH OTHER.
Jennifer Morrison said in one of her interviews that season 1 was all of them living with cursed memories, season 2 was them being both people (before and after the curse) and struggling with it...and season 3 is them finding/figuring out who they really are.
Anyways coming back to this scene..this moment broke me because it's so beautiful. Both of them (Emma and Snow) realize what they have missed and realize the importance of what they have right now. When they hug and them Emma cries and smile and walks away happily...and then Snow turns back and cries realizing what she could have given her daughter but was not able to...my heart BREAKS!
And especially because this parallels to how David's mother gave up her life so that they could have happiness of a family...of having Emma...and they couldn't have that happiness. And how Snow gave up her happy ending with Emma so that she could have her best chance, but she ended up being lonely. And it just breaks my heart. How all of this is so related and heart-breaking.
