Clara,
You are two! Part of me feels like the time has flown by while another part of me can't remember a time without you. You have brought so much spunk and life into our home.
This time a year ago you were not walking, still nursing, and screamed every time I left you. Now you attempt to be fully independent and barely even notice when I leave your Sunday school room. You even potty trained yourself last week. You just started telling us you had to tee tee and refusing your diaper. You don't want me to help you do much of anything. I love watching you learn to do things by yourself, but is always hard to see you declare your independence from me, even if it is just a 2 year old sort of independence.
You are a lover of all animals, although recently you have developed a hatred of bugs. You love to draw, color, and paint. You easily pick up on what your brother is doing and want to do it right along with him, which as turned you into quite a tomboy. You will dig for worms with him, play sports, and vroom toy cars, but you also love pushing your baby dolls around the house. You recognize many letters and their sounds, numbers colors, and shapes just from listening in on Hudson's preschool time. You are using many words and beginning to string short phrases together.

Your favorite movie is Frozen. Your favorite TV shows are Curious George, Jake and the Neverland Pirates, Pound Puppies, and Daniel Tiger. You love to eat cereal, crackers, yogurt, frozen blueberries, and cheese. Your favorite restaurants are Mexican, Chinese, and Chick-fil--A You prefer sweets over salty.
You love your toys and sleep with around 8 or 9 each night. Your must haves at bedtime are snuggy, blanket, sippy cup, a stuffed dog, a plastic dog, a pig, a lion and yesterday you added a lamp and stuffed cat in with the mix. You will often line them up and count them by saying, "Mine, mine, mine, and mine."
You love playing with your kitchen, taking baths, and helping me cook. You always scoot up your stool anytime I bring out the mixing bowls. You love jumping on the trampoline and jumping in the dirt.
We are praying for you everyday sweet girl, that you know and love our Savior very soon. We pray that God will use your life for His glory and that you will always know that you are loved. Loved by us and ultimately loved by Him. Never doubt that. Your daddy and I love you so much.
