She was in the same position she was six years ago, but under completely different circumstances. After successfully graduating from Dancing Elk High School, she went to art school and became a graphic designer. She was now married to her part time lover, but full time friend, Paulie Bleeker. She knew he was the one the moment he laid next to her in the hospital after she had the first baby. They were now laying on the same bed, but with a new addition to the family. In Juno's arms lay a beautiful baby girl named Vanessa, after their first child's adoptive mother. Surprisingly, Juno and Bleeker couldn't exactly keep their agreement on a closed adoption. Vanessa and her son, Michael, had become a regular part of their lives. They visited often, although Michael was not told they are his parents. Vanessa didn't want him to know he was adopted.

She looked around the room, then at their new bundle of joy she held in her arms, and she was hooked. Before this, she had never thought of herself as one of those women who were "born to be a mother" like Vanessa, but now she had reconsidered. Her father walked up behind her and gently said, "I told you, you would be back there on your own terms
