She Moves in Mysterious Ways.

Clarita is on the move!!! If I could post them, I'd show you pics of my amazing daughter doing her belly down, Spidey-palmed crawl/drag maneuver that somehow gets her to point B. I wish you could see the determination in her eyes, how she is tenacious and yet not taxed and how always, always, she is moving toward her brothers. I wish you could see her little rosebud tongue, which she uses to explore everything, her little stars for hands that more and more look to resemble her Mema and Aunt Joanna's pianistas. Also, we say her delicious peach-bottom and apricot-kiki. She is my right-hand man, comes along everywhere, to countless nursery school meetings, just tonight to Maternal Wellness Center; she's nursed 500 times in the minivan, at a performance of Lorca's work at the Mandell theatre, on the lawn at Philly U, even going 60 down 95. She is simultaneously the best sport in the family and the diva we all indulge. May she NOT grow up to be Veruca Salt.
