MIA IS A LITTLE WISER

DUDE! I am really starting to perfect this month-in-between-blog-posts thing, aren't I? We have had a few exciting things that have happened recently. MIA TURNED 7! Whoa, wasn't she just born like yesterday? She thinks it is just rad that she is now 7 because now she only has 1 more year until she can be baptized. Her birthday was, ahem, 2 weeks ago.....so now she only has to wait 11 1/2 months!


If you are wondering why all the pictures are pretty much the same, it is because we didn't really get any great pictures. Much to my chagrin. And, if you are wondering why Mia looks a little nerdy with her hair parted down the middle and plastered to the sides with barrettes.....keep reading below.....
this is why.....Mia got her head split open at school just 2 days before her birthday. A beam that separates the double doors at her school was not secured properly and fell right on top of her. Her nose bled like crazy and so did her head. She got stitches and a concussion and now has a nice wound to prove how tough she is. I was NOT happy about it at the time but we are so blessed that she wasn't hurt more badly. She was a trooper through it all.

Sheesh! Hopefully the school is paying for the medical bill or you're getting free lunches for a year or something! I can't believe you've got a 7-yr-old!

Man, poor Mia! I am glad she is ok. That really stinks for you too, that is not a great phone call to get from the school and it is no fun to see your kid hurt. Oh, and, I thought her hair was cute!

Crazy! Is the school paying for the medical costs or doing anything for you? That is the phone call I dread getting from school. I am glad she is ok. She is such a beautiful girl.
