Little Miss “L”
May 14, 2008
“Good morning!” i exclaimed when Clara and I arrived at Little Miss L’s place Saturday morning. She was lying on the floor flashing her gummy smile and opening and closing her palms, uttering “Bah-Bye.” “No bah-bye, we’re taking pictures!” I said, which she ignored and continued with yet another, “Bah-bye.”
We were suppose to get Little L into a sundress but the sky looked heavy so Mrs. L opted to put her in a cute heavy sweater jacket instead. I presented Little Miss L with a huge lollipop to which she clapped her hands in glee and immediately took to it – only to my dismay when we were at the playground shooting pictures did we realise that the lolli was way too heavy and she practically was dragging in the dirt.

I forgot how short one year olds are until i found out the next day i was sore from crouching low! She’s tiny and super cute! Little L worked it. She was a ball of energy, oblivious to the camera, was constantly laughing and surprisingly agile for someone knee high to a grasshopper. And the most charismatic one year old i’ve ever met. I think it totally runs in the L family.

Missy taking a little tumble, but still upbeat!

Mom had hoisted Missy on her shoulders so she could reach the monkey bars!

She’s short…but determined!
