clover went back to the hospital today to meet with her metabolic team. she walked in the door and marched off towards the elevators. i was merely there to keep up with her and push the stroller holding our bags. you would never know that only a year ago, she was stuck in a bed in the same hospital. clearly she does not hold a grudge.
her report was good and as long as she does not get sick (come on spring!), she does not need to return for five whole months. they even let her skip out of the blood draws this time. i know that we can manage this and more importantly, she can manage this. she is so tiny, but strong.
it was amazing to spend the whole day with just clover. i feel like we really bonded today. we laughed, we held hands, we did what she wanted. i have said it before, but i mean it this time…i am going to make a day a week where i spend time with each twin by themselves. what cool little people they are.
today’s 365 shot with the cameraphone just had to be with my clover jane.

Oh wow! I absulutly love the last picture! Clovers smile is super duper cute! I hope she does not get sick again!
Well done Clover! What a great smile.
And as I sit here in summer heat it’s strange to be admiring your coat, Rachel, but it really caught my eye.
that last shot made me a little teary. she is so cool. and headstrong. i love it.
That last one is beyond priceless. Love it.
So glad she is doing better, sweet bug.
She’s such a little girl now! I get such joy from watching your beautiful family. Thank you for continuing to share!
It is fun to spend time with your kids, one-on-one. Even with only 2 kids, I always appreciated time spent with just one. Adorable pictures and I love the last one!
The last picture is absolutely beautiful. Look at Clover’s heartwarming smile! Can you share what kind of effects did you apply on that last picture? Thanks!
