piper jane loves the vols. she also loves the utes. we’ll wait til she can talk to tell us which she likes better.
she was very sleepy this day. it was fun to just relax.

standing therapy. can any of you believe it that my piper will be walking some day? i think soon. also, old man shoe alert (and ankle brace)!
in her head, piper jane is thinking ‘i’d like to see my mama stop me from chewing on my pulse/ox when she’s got that camera in her hands.’ can you believe my saucy minx of a babe?
this picture is quite old. before she got that nasty cold even. my friend stacey bought pipster j this skirt. i would like to be more like stacey. you know, go around thinking about doing nice things for others. i mostly like doing nice things for myself. but i’m learning.
today we had music therapy. i’ve never been able to see it! it warmed my heart to see the woman come in with her guitar and how the kids reacted. she goes around the room and sings a song for each child. they strum the strings along with her. it’s very sweet. when she was coming over to pip (who was in my lap) i was getting curious as to how pip would respond. she knew exactly what to do and started banging on the guitar and strumming the strings just like all the other kids. then she looked back at me with a big grin as if to get my approval. or possibly to make sure i was seeing how musical she is. melt!
since piper’s house has been blythedale for over a year, it is easy to get really tired of the routine…plus, not to mention, bored. thankfully there are days like today that help spice things up.
























Okay, the mental image of Piper strumming along, and then turning to you and smiling totally squoze (is that a word?) my heart. Seriously. So sweet. You are so lucky.
"MELT."
Should be the title of this post.
I love her little headbands, and I don't even mind that she is a Titans fan.
Maybe she'll make you some moolah with her new career in guitar playing!
Muuah, little PJ!
I wish I was as stylish as Piper. Even the old man shoes look great on her.
