Two years ago today, God blessed us with a little girl, bringing us so much joy. She continues to bring much joy and laughter to our family today!
It's fun to be 2 because...
She pulls off the top part of our bed posts and sings into it like it is a microphone while dancing on our bed.
She sits on a barstool in the kitchen beside me while I cook and she helps stir, add ingredients, and most importantly clean the spoons and beaters (by licking them of course.)
She likes to give hugs and kisses. But one of her favorite expressions of love is to come up close to your face and give you a lick. If she licks one person, she has to go around to other family members and also bless them with a lick.
She helps unload the dishwasher by standing on the door and handing me glasses, plates, bowls and silverware for me to put away. Then she helps load the dishwasher with the dirty dishes too.
She says many words....
this
that
gone
banky
bed
brush teeth
daddy
mama
her brother's names
book
dog
cat
bye
diaper
floor
and many more too numerous to mention...
She has "the look" for anyone who dares to cross her path when she's feeling a little cranky, and a scream to go with it.
She loves to play with the doll I had as a child, whom I named Jenny. She says "Denny" though.
We are so thankful that God brought Clara into our lives just when He did. We can't imagine our lives without her now!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, CLARA! We love you!

Happy birthday Clara! I can't believe it's been 2 years. Last time we saw her she was just a few weeks old! Can't wait to see Clara and the whole family in a few weeks!

Happy Birthday little Clara!
I can't believe its been over 2 years that I've been reading your blog...that's weird!
Happy Birthday, dear Clara! I have happy, warm memories of the day of your birth!
Unbelievable to think she's two already! I know it feels as though there's never been life "before" Clara!
