Clarinet

I can't believe Claire is three weeks old already. Time goes by so quickly. Yes I'm exhausted but Claire is a wonderful baby. Plus, it's been so helpful having Lance home and having such wonderful friends and family who have been taking good care of us by bringing us dinner. It really has helped a bunch. So thank you everyone. I know I've been a bit of a recluse, but I just haven't had the energy to do anything. And, I haven't wanted to take Claire out because of all the nasty bugs that are going around. Everyone I know has either had a cold or the flu. I really don't want a sick baby!

Ok, on to my reason for today's post. Last week I was talking with my sister Ann. I was telling her about Claire's name and how I had wanted Annette. So Ann just looks at me and says "Then her name would have been clarinet." I just started laughing. Do you know how many times I had said Claire Annette in my head? Not once did it occur to me that it sounded just like clarinet. I had run this name idea past Lance and he never said anything about it either. So, I'm glad that we did not name our little girl clarinet, although I really do like the name Annette.
