Up and Down

Our nightly ritual has become like clockwork, we go up the street to see the cats, down the street to see Molly (our neighbors dog) and then repeat, over and over. The only variation is whether she rides her scooter, drives her Cozy Coupe, or walks. I swear our neighbors think we are 'casing the joint' with how much time we spend outside their homes. But the truth is Claire loves to be outside. From the time she wakes up until the time we put her to bed she wants to play outside. And now that she has become more vocal she directs us by grabbing our shoes, throwing them at our feet and loudly declaring 'GO-GOOOOOOO' until we get the subtle hint and take her outside.
