New Information

Wanted to share our new found information about Leah. She seems to share a love of break dancing that her father and friend Hayden have. The following is her version of break dancing which seems to occur on a nightly basis, especially when she is tired. I think she has a bright future!

Spring Break


Well this week is spring break for us and we were lucky enough to get to spend time with my mom and sister and share the Easter holiday at home. We had a great time and Leah enjoyed seeing everyone and spending time with her cousins. Lester and I left Leah with Jamie and my mom and we spent a few days away. We had a great time and it was wonderful to get away. Leah too had a great time, Josh taught her new tricks and she is even better at spitting than she was when we left! She also grew three new teeth over the break and I swear she is taller. We had a wonderful spring break and were grateful to get to spend time with family. Hope the week finds all of you well!

Remembering


Well today is a sad and happy day all wrapped up into one. It was three years ago today that Evonne passed away, which undoubtedly brings about some sad memories. But, having Leah helps Lester and I both to remember what a great spirit she was. Looking at Leah it is hard to deny the resemblance as she looks just like her father and he looks just like his mother, so it is easy to see Evonne in her. Leah and I spend time often talking about her grandmother, what she was like, the kind of person she was and the shoes that Leah has to fill having part of her name. Today we are saddened by the loss of Evonne but thrilled that we have a little girl to continue with the name Leah Evonne Norvell, as we expect her to be as great as her grandmother.
