Little Miss Goose

Someone turned two today. With every stage Clara grows into, I find myself thinking, "This is my favorite age." And I believe that. Until the next one comes about. It is fun to reminisce about when Clara was just so tiny and thoroughly enjoyable to see the amount of things she's learned/developed in just two years. Just as Clara has gone from this to this...

My love has increased exponentially as well. What a sweet little girl we've been blessed with in our home. I love her more than words can explain. I know that's so cliche, but mothers understand. There is something about a mother's love that is so deep that words can't get near it. That's certainly how much I love Clara.

On Sundays we celebrate birthdays at my mom's. I made these cupcake pops (cute, not worth the effort in my opinion because of the taste, but I'd make them again) to take over there. I didn't want to have a party for her 2nd birthday, but I did want to have something other than cake. So cupcake pops it was.

Clara blew her candle out before we even started singing to her. So we lit it again and she waited until we finished singing. She was SO proud of herself when she blew it out.

Clara got lots of fun presents and will love them all. I felt a little silly because I wasn't expecting everyone to get her something. We're lucky to be near so many friends and family.
