Just before Willow's birth--and literally the day before--Rosie not only fell out of a tree, breaking her neck and her right arm, but she also came down with a bad case of the smallpox. Poor Daisy had to leave her own home, and poor Rosie wasn't allowed to meet her baby sister until she was completely better--which luckily did happen, though it was almost two months after Willow was born that Rosie finally met her, as it took poor Rosie that long to completely recuperate.
Ophelia Emmeline Blake is known as Willow, as she is very agile and graceful. Her limbs are rather willowy. Like her older siblings, she is quite the active little baby already.
Rosie is recovering from her fall quite well. She is still in a wheelchair, but the doctors say she should be able to walk again eventually. After her bout of the smallpox, she is even frailer than before. She easily falls sick, and often it takes longer for her to recuperate than for the average person.
Wren is a very happy little boy. He's always running about. He also is always making a mess. He is rather uncooperative when it comes to cleaning up after himself. He will throw a fit when asked to clean up his own mess.
Blue is very sweet. He's always doing as much as a two-year-old can to help around the house. He is very "in tune with nature." He loves to play outside. His favorite outdoor pastime is picking flowers for his mother and sisters, especially Rosie.
Daisy is keeping up with her family quite well, as is Nat.
