Happy Birthday Claire

My favorite daughter is turning 12 today. TWELVE! Crazy how the time has flown. I think I have a harder time with Claire because she's always been an old soul. She has always been very articulate and verbal. Basically, she's always been like an adult.

She has always been petite so I don't have those ah ha, "I'm taller than you moments that remind me that she is getting older". Every birthday sneaks up on me.

She's very even tempered. She is a good combination of sweet, sensitive and sassy. She doesn't take any crap and she says what she's thinking.

Her favorite thing this year was dance, she LOVES dance. This year she did jazz, kick and lyrical. Her smile never left her face.

It's not very often that I get a photo with her, this one makes me smile.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CLAIRE!
I LOVE YOU MORE THAN DISNEY!
