Claire continued

Yes, it's been a while, but the changes keep happening around here. We don't do them justice.



Claire routinely reads to herself now. On Tuesday, when we both had the day off, she asked to read eight books, and that was just in the morning. Later that night, she pulled out one of her favorites, Biscuit, and read one of the stories out loud.



We got another dose of wintery weather this weekend and Claire took full advantage of it. She was the first to spot snow falling outside the window and the first to get out the door to play in it. Even before I could get my coat on, Claire had donned hers, grabbed the nearest hat she could find -- mom's -- and opened the door.


The snowflakes were big but soon turned to rain. That didn't bother Claire. She had her boots on.



No snowstorm is too small if there's some puddle jumping to be had.

Claire's a sweetie! If she keeps dressing this fast she'll be miles ahead of her Nana, only Mutti could get ready faster than any female I've met. Now at her Hanson grandparents she could build snowmen & make snow angels as well as go sledding.
