Happy Birthday Clarity Blue

Dear Clarity,

You are now oficially one year old. One whole year! You are an amazing little girl. You inspire me every single morning when you wake up so ready, present, and full of joy to begin the day again.

You love to stand at the back door and look at the birds in the bird feeder. As soon as you hear the birds you flap your arms and laugh with delight. The flapping arms is your sign for birdies. You also love dogs and cats. Your sign for dogs is to stick out your tongue and pant like a doggie.

You are quite a climber. No walking just yet but I think it will come any day. Your daddy was so good to teach you how to climb up things but more importantly how to climb down things safely. No we don't have to say NO to everything because we know you know how to get up and down.

Eating is your specialty. You love all kinds of foods like beans, tofu, cheese puffs and pickles.

Sleep is still a problem for you. I am sorry to report that we have had to let you cry a little in hopes of teaching you how to soothe yourself. Sweet Clarity, you need your sleep and Mama and Daddy need their sleep. Let's work together as a team to sleeeeep all night long!

I should also mention that you love music. You dance whenever there is music on and you always love to help your daddy play his guitar.

I am so blessed to have you as my daughter. I love you and happy birthday!
