Happy Birthday Claudia!
Yesterday was Claudia's birthday. Her best present was having baby John blessed on her birthday. 
Jonathan and Merry Watt, the proud parents.
Ivy wasn't too sure about this little baby getting all her mom's attention. Just you wait my love, only 18 more weeks until your baby brother comes!
I'm always nervous to have my cakes get eaten, you can't really taste test it before serving it up...so I can only judge it's goodness by how fast it gets eaten. This one did...ok.
We loved celebrating Grandma's 55th birthday with her and lots of the cousins. Claudia is one of the best examples I know. She deals with many hardships, but you would never know it by how positive and fun she is. I've also never seen someone so talented at "turning the other cheek," but maybe it's because unfortunately she has had lots of experience with having to do just that. She is such a wonderful person and I'm so happy that my kids get to have her as their grandma forever. I'm also especially glad to have her as my mother-in-law. She is a very nonjudgmental and forgiving person, and loves her 23rd grandchild as though she was her first. Who can say all that about their mother-in-law? Now if only I actually wrote all this in her card...
