Clara - Ups and Downs of the Week

 Clara had a week of mixed emotions.

At 6:30 on Thursday morning, her folks got a call from the basketball coach, saying that Clara had fallen and was going to need stitches. She had tripped over another girl's foot, during BB practice, and taken a dive. Chris went to get her and whisked her off to the ER, where she got several stitches in her chin.


We are thankful that no bones, no glasses and no dental retainer were broken, but the laceration was deep!

Things began looking up for Clara on Saturday. Because her non-smart phone had died, her dad took her to look for a new one. Clara's agreement, in order to get her Corgi pup last spring, was that she would wait until she turned 16 to ask for a smart phone. Well, it turned out that finding a "dumb" phone to replace hers was next to impossible. Chris went to three different stores, and finally gave in to the inevitable. Clara, at 15, is now the proud owner of a new smart-phone! Look at that smile!


We love you, our sweet Clara!
