Thank Heavens for Little Girls


This is Leah, the youngest of 6 kids, and the little sister to 4 big teasing, brothers. By the time she was born, her older siblings were in full swing activity-wise, so Leah was raised in a car-seat going from dance to soccer to whatever or where ever else. Joe calls her "the human ankle bracelet" because now, she is my shadow 24/7. Thank heavens for this little girl! She pulls me away from my middle age life of rush and responsibility to a world where girls rake leaves merely to jump in them. I love you Leah, don't let me grow up too fast...and you don't either!
