Austen now calls both Squirt and Scout by the name “Scout.” This is very sad because of Scout’s cancer diagnosis. Austen may not even remember her when she grows up.

Happy Mia Day!
Mia, one of Austen’s best friends, celebrated her second birthday at the park. It was a warm afternoon with friends and cake.
Mia is nice enough to remind everyone what day it is today. Later in the party, after Chris surreptitiously dissapeared, a surprise visitor arrived. Mia may not have enjoyed the visitor but Austen loved him!
