Claire turns 6

When asked about turning 6, Claire responded, "Mommy, I have to use 2 hands now!" (referring to the number of fingers required to indicate her age). What a joy she is and at an incredibly fun age...inching into independence but curls in my lap like she was a newborn! Giggles like a 3 year old and asks questions like a 10 year old at times...so what age is she? Just where God has her...6 years old chronological and all Claire everywhere else! We had a great time celebrating over several days...August 4 was her actual day and we got to celebrate her just the 4 of us and a visit at the end of the day by Grandmommy and Granddaddy and Uncle Bobby! With family and friends surround, we went full blown with 2 crazy sprinklers, 150 waterballoons and 15 kids and countless laughs and smiles. The crowning moment was when the Kona Ice Snowcone truck showed up and it would be our equivalent to Ed McMahon for Claire! KONA ICE MOMMY!!! (My heart was overflowing at seeing her excitement!) Snow cones ingested and back to more water fun! Good times had by all! Jack is her very special friend who was born 12 hours earlier than her on the same day...they got to celebrate their day together at Alabama Splash Adventure a few days later! Ain't it grand to be a kid...AND to have one like Claire! Thank you Lord for our sweet daughter!
