California Girls








Leah and Clara took their first Mother/Daughter trip last week out to Los Angeles for a few days. Clara was an excellent traveler, she did great on both flights and developed her own little Clara fan club (it's the blue eyes and chubby cheeks that reels them in). It was a splendid time of connecting with friends, catching up with tears and laughter, getting a good wintertime dose of palm trees and the pacific. For Leah, the time with just Clara was magical. Even though she really missed her boys back home (and was scared to think of what the house or their outfits looked like...) having the chance to focus completely on her little girl was special and needed. Thank you to all our friends who made the trip worthwhile and thanks to the wonderful men (Ben is in the midst of a phase where he only wants to be addressed as a "man") who welcomed their girls home.
