Reflections

Babies Yay!

Posted on June 4, 2016 | Posted by Annie Saunders

The Ascension community has been blessed with a lot of new life recently, and we celebrate that! We’ve asked parents to tell us more about their babies, so we can all get a glimpse into the people they’re developing into. Special thanks to the families who sent in the pictures and fun facts. Enjoy!
