Claire is 5!

 

On Wednesday my girl turned 5.  In so many ways I feel like she's been five for a long time...sometimes I have to stop and remind myself of how little she still really is.  Five years old finds my Claire full of life: artistic, creative, generous, social, and so loving.  She is my kitchen assistant, my little mama, and her daddy's sweetheart.  We love her so.

Like last year, I interviewed her on her birthday, asking her questions about herself.  Some of her answers are similar to last year's, but others are different.
