Sunny Sunday!

What a glorious day out. The sun is shining and I'm imagining April and Nick and Abby out for a walk, Tyler and Amy relaxing on a beach in Chile and the Cathy and Cliff's house in full throttle because:


TODAY IS CLAIRE'S BIRTHDAY!



Our beautiful Claire is 7 today and she's having an all-girl birthday party. I think I had my very first party when I was 6 possibly turning 7, and it was so noisy in the house that our goldfish died! Now that was a party.



You are a dear little girl, so tender, so loving, with the greatest laugh. You bring great joy to our hearts just thinking about you. You have learned so much this year at school. Just had a 100 day party at school and on Thursday you read your book to me before I could even read it to you. Wow, that was impressive. I love how much you love broccoli and Nanny's mac and cheese and the thoughtful, intentional way you go about accomplishing a request for help. I smile at how you get Caroline out of her crib and bring her downstairs.



Claire Bear, Nanny and Pappa hope that you have a wonderful day today filled with fun, happy laughter-filled things, and that if you had goldfish in a bowl, well, we won't go there. One thing is for sure though Claire, we love you very, very much! Happy Birthday sweetheart.



YYYYYYY




Claire tiny enough to fit in her Great Aunty Madeleine's Doll Buggy

Our 7 Year Old!

We can see the future!
