Could a 5 year old be any cuter?? =) Claire wanted the picture that I took for her mommy's computer - I told her 'no way, I'm blogging your cuteness' but Claire was very biased (boo-hoo) and insisted, so I gave in and agreed to send it to her mother - but first I used it ;)
Claire visited me today because her mom is sick, she calls coming to my house a 'play date' - who knew I wasn't too old for that? ;) My own mother was over and asked Claire if she was the oldest in her family, she said 'yes, I have a little brother Oscar'. My mom says to her 'is he a grouch'? I was shocked!! I would have never said something like that to a kid I didn't know - but Claire not missing a beat says 'Oh, you're thinking of Sesame Street'. So we all laughed - Claire is super quick like that. Claire then states 'but Oscar {my brother} doesn't live in a {garbage} can'. LoL
We always play I spy in the car when we're together, she's actually VERY good at it. She's very descriptive and knows how to choose the really hard items! So, I chose a red triangle and Claire guesses 'is it the hazard lights' - yup, the triangle was indeed the button for the hazard lights - Claire said her mom taught her that. So, Claire chooses something and says 'it's green and sometimes yellow, in my case it's green' - what does that even mean? LoL Jonathan asks 'is it the cigarette lighter' (there was a round yellow light illuminating it) and Claire asks 'what's a cigarette lighter' - great, now she's going to repeat that new piece of information she just learned! LoL It ended up being the heater light. I guess in her parents car, it's green and in our car it's yellow. Too much info makes you think too hard because it took us a little while before we started guessing each individual light in the car ;)
Claire, super proud of herself, told me that she cooks for herself when her mom is feeling sick. I asked her what she cooked and she said 'chicken nuggets or Cheerios' - I am totally laughing and thank goodness she is laughing right along with me! She has no idea how adorable she is. I ask Claire how she cooks chicken nuggets and she says 'I get them out of the freezer, I get a plate, I put the nuggets on the plate, I get a chair and I stand on the chair to reach the microwave, then I push 1 minute and when the timer rings, they're done. **2 second pause** Do you want to hear how I cook Cheerios?' I am laughing out tears now and she is only laughing too because I am laughing. . . she knows something is funny - but probably not quite sure exactly what!
