Mia

Because Mia isn't quite old enough to blog for herself, I've decided to blog for her {about her} today. As most of you know, Mia is quite a character and definitely keeps us on our toes. We thought this would be dissipating by now, but in fact as she nears the ripe age of 5 years, she seems to be gaining steam in the 'naughty' category. Some of her recent, favorite past times include {but most definitely are not limited to}: destroying her room in under 30 seconds {so she now gets locked out on a regular basis}; signing her name on EVERYTHING {i.e. walls, various pieces of furniture, other people's homework, etc.} and then denying or blaming it on one of her numerous imaginary friends; {my recent favorite} cutting the strings on our hardwood blinds and, last but certainly not least, excelling in the fine art of becoming a kleptomaniac, stealing anything and everything she can from anyone that wasn't smart enough to remember to lock their bedroom door when they left for the day.

Honestly, by child number four, we thought we'd been through it all {or at least enough}, but wow, she is definitely one that has us questioning if she is from the same gene pool.

The other night as we were {yet again} telling her how naughty she was, she asked Justin and I, "Is Santa watching?" To which we replied, "yes." And so it went..."Is Jesus watching?" {yes}...and the grand finale "Are the Jonas Brothers watching?" {mom and dad just stare at each other unable to respond}.
