My Dear Sweet Clara,
I cannot believe how much fun it was to have you and everyone here for Christmas.. There were times you could feel the love and adoration and the gratitude to God for you. The gift of you. We all gathered
around and reveled with each of your smiles and squiggy faces you love to make. We played, we read, we rocked, we bathed....every little thing became a more fun experience with you in it.
I was looking at some of your books today. I remember reading, "Splish! Splash! A princess went down to the river to take a bath. She saw a basket in the tall grass. A baby was inside! The princess named the baby Moses." This so reminds me of you. You love the water! Your baths were so much fun. You seem to become so relaxed and happy in the water. You throw your little arms and legs around in delight when the water showers you. This tells me you are a very secure little one..early on you welcomed new experiences. Your mom and dad took you to a baby spa in London, when you were very tiny. Let's just say you took to it like a little duckling. We love watching as you grow...we see a newness in things through your eyes. I love you forever and always, Grammy Sue
