Claire and Mallory

 Just the Girls

I love hanging out with my girls! Daddy works very hard and is out of town a lot but we get along just fine and enjoy the weeks when he is home, like the next two in a row!  We love our family time!! 

Mallory was sick a couple of days and couldn't go to school. She spent one day with Grams & Papa and one day with mommy. I had to take her to work with me for a while and of course that was totally boring for her. Until she found a white teddy bear and a set of juggling balls in one of my desk drawers. Really, I don't know where that stuff came from but she found it. Now that she knows I can juggle, she has turned me into her personal circus clown. By the way, she sleeps with the bear and juggling balls every night. Very interesting, I know. I guess the day wasn't a complete failure.

 

 There are tall, long-legged women on both sides of the family and Claire got the double dose with an extra helping of skinny. I swear this girl eats a lot and has the biggest sweet tooth on the planet. At the rate she is growing, she'll be taller than me in just a couple of years. People are surprised when I tell them she just turned 5. She is a head taller than all the other kids in her class.
