February 5: I’m so proud of this girl! Saturday she performed in the 72nd annual All City Music Festival at the Holland Performing Arts Center downtown.

January 23: Josephine watched me curling Clara’s hair, I asked her if Clara looked like Barbie…
Josephine: No, Barbie has gold hair not brown hair. And she doesn’t wear *those* clothes.
Clara: Jigi! Are you offending my shirt?!
Josephine: No, I’m offending *all* of you.
