Claudia heads back to Haskins Lab today.  She is a good test subject.

It was fun to watch Claudia at dance class yesterday.  She likes her teacher so very, very much.  She is so polite in class and it is fun to watch her talk to the teacher about her day as she doesn't do that with everyone.

She is very excited about her present for Molly and the parties.  She picked out decorations and everything.  Wait until she figures out that Molly gets more than one party (one in CT, one in PA).

"Claudia what do you think Molly will be when she grows up?"

Long pause.

"My sister!!"

Claudia has been out and about a fair amount.  She visited the Zamary's Friday night and had fun boxing with their Wii game.  Yesterday she had fun at a birthday party.

We are working together on building Molly a special birthday present.  Claudia has been doing the measuring and drawing all the lines for me.  I hope to put it together (rocking chair) so she can start painting.

Claudia rebounded on Thursday and was able to go to see Peter, Paul and Mary with Mommy.  It was a truly special night that I (mommy) am so grateful to have shared with her.  We both got all dressed up, dresses, necklaces and bracelets.  We also had our hair done at Claudia's beauty salon in her room.  As soon as we found our seats we found out that the lady next to us was named Claudia as well!  Claudia thought that was really neat and opened up to her right away, showing her everything from her shoes to bracelets.  

The concert was great, and they sang all the songs that Claudia knew so we were lucky.  I thought she was going to jump out of her seat when they started singing Puff!!!  She did a lot of clapping and singing.  It was so great to experience this with her as I remember them from my childhood.  Three generations enjoying Peter, Paul and Mary!!  That is amazing in itself.  She lasted about 2 hours which was perfect and we got out before the crowds.  Since then we have been playing a lot of Peter, Paul and Mary games :)

Claudia has been pretty sick the past few days with a cough and a bit of a fever.  She didn't go to dance class yesterday and we are hoping she improves.  Claudia and Mommy have big tickets to see Peter, Paul, and Mary on Thursday.
