Mara Rose Cummings

Mara Rose is a Chicago-born powerhouse wrapped in a swaddle. She’s got warmth, wonder, and just the right amount of sass. Her blue eyes are deeper than Lake Michigan and twice as expressive—she can silence a room with a single glance. She’s opinionated, charming, and already running the household like a tiny mayor. Whether she’s cooing, kicking, or commanding attention, Mara makes it clear: she’s here to lead, not follow.

Mara Rose loves soaking up the Chicago sunshine at the beach in her bassinet, especially with her 4-legged brother Captain, by her side. She’s a social butterfly in the making, lighting up every room she enters. Whether she’s meeting family across the city or charming out-of-state visitors, Mara’s favorite activity is simply being adored. And let’s be honest, she’s really, really good at it.

Before Mara Rose was born, we poured our hearts (and savings) into renovating our home to welcome her. She’s been to Home Depot more times than most adults! A $25,000 gift would help us pay down those renovation costs and set up her college fund—because one look into her bright blue eyes and you just know she’s going to do something amazing. It would be a gift toward her future and the home that’s growing with her.
