Forever Fun....

Claire came to the farm for the first time this fall

Look at the smile, look at the fun that is Claire. This is a picture of Claire wearing the "flower crown" Bella and I made this summer. She found it and wanted to try it on. She couldn't be more adorable in this photo. I must admit this visit for Claire was anything but what we all hoped for and yet, look at that smile. I adore her. Some of the unexpected events that took place were not small. She got sick almost immediately, with a very painful ear infection. Fall break turned to "winter break" and I'm sure there were more but those were the big ones. In spite of it all she found her smile. That is the essence of Claire. I love you Claire Bear!

The Kimono Dragon wanting a piece of us

The longer we watched him the closer he came. He is who we came to see, a first view of the Kimono Dragon for all of us. Brennan especially loved it here.
