Claire is 4!

Waiting for Mom to light the candles.

Fun with the Carters!

She was sure excited to open her presents!

On December 30th, Claire turned four years old. It is so hard to beleive that my baby is already 4! Time sure does fly! We had a fun day of going to the church to ride scooters and play in the gym. We then went to High School Musical 3 in the theatres, complete with popcorn and pop - Claire's favorites! We then met Mike and went to Chili's for supper - as Claire requested, she loves their queso dip. The day ended with pink cupcakes, gifts and fun with the Carter cousins. Fun day for a little four year old! Claire's eyes were just shining, she was so excited to be the center of attention!

Sheers said...: I LOVE that pic of her behind her cupcakes. What a little cutie.
I also love that your kids request Chili's - I think that's awesome. As I kid I think I would have requested McDonalds, or chuck e cheese, or something like that. They know where to get the good stuff. hehe.
Happy Birthday Claire!; February 4, 2009 at 8:45 PM

Today, from the moment they woke up, my kids were fighting. As we were eating breakfast, instead of reading the scriptures like I normally do, I was quietly sitting. Ethan noticed the absence of my reading, then makes a request. "May I be excused from the table for a minute, please?" "Why, I asked?" With a trembling frown on his face, he quietly replies, "Because, I need to go repent." He then goes over and kneels at the couch. When he returned to the table, I asked him what he said. He tells me "I asked Heavenly Father to forgive me for all the mistakes I have made today." That little boy just melted my heart.

For family home evening last week, we had a lesson on service, then challenged our children to do three secret service acts for members of our family. We then met together again to discuss the things they had done, and how it made them feel. When it came to Ethan, he furrowed his brow, and was digging deep to remember what he had done. All of a sudden his face lit up, and he exclaims: "I know!" The other day, Abigail had to leave from playing her game on the play station, and I finished it for her!" We all got a good laugh out of that one, including Ethan.

At supper, we were playing our new game of asking and answering various questions, to create interesting conversation. One of the questions was, if you had one million dollars, what would you buy? We all had fun dreaming of all the fun things we would aquire. When it came to Claire's turn, I asked her, "Claire, if you had lots and lots of money, and could buy whatever you wanted, what would you get?" She thinks for a moment, then with enthusiastic, bright eyes, exclaims "Lucky Charms!"

One day Claire excitedly exclaims - "Mom, I can feel my heart beeping!"

Claire was playing with a baby doll named Sarah one day. I asked her - "Claire, is Sarah a good baby?" She enthusiastically responds,"Yes, because she eats ALL of her vegetables!"

While driving one day, out of the blue, Abigail states - "I just love kissing!" "Pardon me?", I ask, shocked. "Well you know, like when people kiss in movies, or moms and dads kiss, and people say eww, well, it's not gross to me, I like it."
