Today is my birthday (I’m 33 years old, in case you were wondering) and I thought this would be the perfect day to release my newest pattern, the Claire Pajamas Pattern. I have been working on this pattern for several months getting it just right and I’m so happy to finally have it completed and ready to offer to all of you! I truly hope you love it as much as I do.
Dear Matilda Jane,
Happy Birthday! Today you turn five years old!! These last five years have flown in the blink of an eye. Five years really isn’t all that long, but it feels like you have been in our life forever. And then again, when I think about the fact that you are just five years, that’s actually hard to believe. I always think of you as a little bit older or the same age as your big sister. Maybe it’s because the two of you are so close in age, play with so many of the same toys and enjoy so many of the same activities. But today you turn five years old and here are some things I would like to remember about you on your 5th birthday and that you might like to look back upon and remember as well………….
