Dress up

All of the kids love to dress up. Mary and Lydia make each other and Clarissa incredibly imaginative outfits out of scarves and blankets. Here’s Mary modeling one of their creations:

Also they dress Clarissa up like a doll. She is very patient with the process and it’s totally normal for her to parade halfway through the day down the stairs in nothing but ingeniously tied blankets and scarves. Or they put her in all sorts of dresses. Her favorite thing to say and do when so attired is throw up her arms and yell “I’m the princess!”
