freedom.

here is a picture that i love.  

why?  

because although the photo itself is poor quality (courtesy of a cheap cell phone), it shows my girl taking her first bottle.  

bottle = freedom.  

and brenner even made clara hold the bottle herself.  

pretty impressive for a 3 week old.

i must also note that my husband graciously offered to keep the girls for a couple of hours while i went out of the house by myself.  it was, however, an offer of selfishness merely cloaked in kindness.  i found out that his window of watching the girls happened to coincide with round 1 of the big 12 basketball tournament where baylor played kansas state.  

but i will take what i can get.
