Today my baby turned 10 years old. I am a bit emotional about it, but so blessed to have been given these past 10 years with the most amazing child a mother could ever ask for! Claire has such a huge heart, a desire to help others, an ability to always make people laugh, a strong will, and a passion to always do her best. God sure went above and beyond when he allowed me to be the mother to His child. Claire never ceases to amaze me and each day is a new adventure. I am so thankful for the past 10 years and I pray that I get many, many more years to watch Claire grow into the woman He intends for her to be.
We didn't do a party for Claire at this time (she is having a roller skating and pool party/sleepover in August). Claire instead had one of her very best friends overnight last night and they spent the day together today having lots of fun. Claire woke to open presents and have monkey bread for breakfast.
Then after church we went to eat at Texas Roadhouse.
Claire got to ride on the saddle for her birthday and handled it very well!
Then we came home to do some more swimming on a beautiful afternoon.
You can't have a birthday without some cookie cake and ice cream! We sang happy birthday and Claire blew out her candles. What a great way to end a wonderful day celebrating an amazing girl!
