Happy Birthday Claudia! It seems like just yesterday you were a little baby.

Claudia has had a very enjoyable Christmas season. Currently we are snowed in and she is enjoying playing with her toys with Aunt Susannah and Mimi. Claudia is surrounded by lots of generous people (you know who you are...) and will be opening boxes for a long time.

Claudia got ice skates, a drawing/craft table, lots and lots of toys. Tomorrow--birthday.

This has been a very busy week! The excitement for Christmas and Claudia's 5th birthday is in full swing. She says at least once a day - "Oh Mommy, I REALLY want Christmas to be today, I CAN'T wait" :))) I love seeing the sparkle in her eye. We got a beautiful Christmas tree and made some delicious cookies. We have been having a lot of fun with Christmas carols and making crafts. Santa will be here soon!
