Sympathy card from Lydia and Clarissa’s slang.

Lydia made this card for Mary recently after Mary had her fall during the Park City bike ride. I just today (writing this two days later) was commenting to Lily that Lydia has a heart of gold.

Also, I want to share a bit about Clarissa’s command of the English language, specifically slang. She has always been very verbal, and has charmed us as she has precociously said things like, “what the heck?”. But today took the cake on her use of idioms. While putting her to bed, I was on the phone with my brother Jere, and I let Clarissa say hello. Clarissa told Jere all about how she recreated Toca World from her iPad with blocks in her room. She was so excited and told him all about it and then said, “it was epic!” I thought that was so funny. Only two days ago she asked me what “epic” meant and I explained it to her. What a learner!
