She's 6!

My little lady turned six recently-I can't believe it! We had so much fun celebrating her special day (weekend) with family and friends. I am so thankful for 6 years with my sassy and silly ECM. I love you little lady!

We had such a wonderful time with our dear friend, Vivvy. She was here from Scotland for two weeks. We are so looking forward to the day when we are able to go visit her and hopefully it is not in the too distant future!!

Last Day

Friday was Claire's last day of preschool. It was quite an emotional day. We have both made such wonderful new friends and it was bittersweet as many of us will be going in different directions. Having said that, we are so thankful for our new friendships and the fantastic memories from these last two years. It is hard to believe that she will be in kindergarten in just a few short months. The program was so sweet-there is nothing like watching a bunch of adorable little four-year olds singing songs in chapel. I am so proud of you Eleanor Claire-I love you with all of my heart little lady!!!
