Stuff About Leah

1. We met in the hospital, where you had patiently waited until the doctor left the room to make your arrival.
2. Your middle name is Katherine, it means "pure" and you were named after your Daddy's grandma, who was very regal and yet still made everyone else feel like the most special person in the room
3. I've known you since you were too small to even ... sing!
4. We last saw each other about a second ago, discussing the mob.
5. Well... you're no longer the "coaster chicken," so skydiving's a possiblity.
6. First impression: I thought you were amazingly feminine and marveled at your long, beautiful fingers and fingernails.
7. Funny? Oh, yes, and you have always understood how to deliver a good line.
8. Musicals are your favorite, at the top of your lungs.
9. You would most like to: Go to NYC and see a Broadway play
10.What do I think you should do: Um... have 10 children and live next door to your parents.
11. Special talents: You have a vibrant imagination, are a masterful wordsmith, can sing, draw, sew, knit, crochet, make people happy, and understand children. Practically perfect, like Mary Poppins. You also have an ear for foreign languages and seem to learn them easily.
12. Inside jokes: I'll just put this here to "introog" you, "I not 'Hontas," that you can read my mind, as in: Meet me at the place by the thing where we went that one time.
13. Have I ever hugged you? Oh my, yes. I didn't put down until you were 7.
14. Favorite food: Pei Wei, Pei Wei and more Pei Wei
15. A good nickname: Leah Lou Who
16. Favorite memory: You doing your "silly walk" at age 2 (bent over, straight legs), you giving John the last Odyssey stickers and similar kindnesses, you assuming that Jesus' last name was Rabe since we were in His family
17. If you and I were stranded on an island, what would you bring? A good readaloud book!
18. Who's your best friend? Your Savior
19. Overall impression: Sunshine Leah.
20. How did we become friends ? I loved you the minute I saw you.
21. Where will you be in 10 years? I don't know but it will be brighter because you are there.
