Been Thinking

I have been thinking lately about how quickly my sweet Claire has grown up! In the fall she will go to the "big kid" school. When we drive by it she will say, "When do I get to go there?" If you asked me three weeks ago, I would have told you that I wish she was going yesterday but lately, I have realized that it is going to be very sad to see her walk away that first day. She probably won't even look back to make sure I am still there. She is very independent and is willing to try almost anything. I was doing things around the house and making bread this afternoon and Wes was napping and not once did anyone come and ask to see in the bowl or ask to help me with what I was doing (she was at preschool). I thought to myself how lonely it is going to be around here. A lot more quiet (until wes gets a little older) a lot more clean (until the weekend) and no one with sweet little hands offering to help make the bread. She is growing just like she is suppose to experiencing things that she needs to and going to the "big kid" school in the fall. I am going to miss her!

Sigh... I know just how you feel! :) I will of course have Grace to keep me company, but we will not know what to do with ourselves without Joshua around!

I agree -- your thoughts brought a tear to my eye. Hope y'all are well.

Claire went to a farm for preschool and she loved it! It was fun to be there with all her friends but it was SO windy.

Peek-A-Boo

Peek-A-Boo
This is her favorite spot to hide! She loves to play in the hampors. She thought it was really cool to just peek out a little. She is such a sweetie pie!

Look at her smile, she was having a blast. We went to Home Depots Kids Workshop. She and Brad made a flower box. They had a lot of fun (minus the fact that she was little sick) We got in the car and she wouldn't stop talking about it.

This was the finishing project.
