A Rose Grows in JP

When Mia was born, we received a beautiful gift--a peace rose bush to plant in our yard. When the weather warmed and the ground thawed, we lovingly planted the baby bush. Now that summer is here, the rose, much like our own Mia Rose, is in full bloom.


Mia continues to astound us. She can hold her own bottle now. Well, not without a little help, but still!


She now is very interested in her play mat. Before, it was kind of fun. But now, it's the greatest.


She's not sleeping as well as she used to. But we're not going to talk about that. Because hey, she's just too cute to mention it.
