Happy 21st Birthday, Claire! xxx

Today, Claire turned 21!  I can't believe how quickly the time has passed but I have to accept that she is a grown woman with her own little family and we couldn't be prouder of her.
We know the last thing Claire expected to be on her 21st birthday was a Mother but I think we can honestly say she wouldn't change where she is now for anything :o)  Life throws little curve balls and in this case she's caught that ball and run with it and is loving life as it is now.  Happy 21st Birthday Claire, we love you xxx

And now for a few photos taken today:
 Claire's main present today was a new camera so she can capture Alice growing up in photos and videos.
 We had beautiful weather today and it was a pleasure not to be all wrapped up in warm clothes
 Mummy tastes so good!!
 Sweet baby girl - we love the way she holds her hands like this :o)

We had the family round for afternoon tea and cake followed by a Chinese Take Away before Claire and Craig went out for the evening, leaving Grandma to babysit :o)

  4. Life doesn't always turn out how you plan but it is how you cope with it's little surprises that makes the difference between flying and failing and Claire is so obviously flying. Happy Birthday Claire.
