Leilah was such a beautiful little girl. From the time she turned 1 we knew she was special. We would call her just to talk to her on the phone, her response would be I call you right back, that met I’m done leave me alone. When she began kindergarten at Stine Elementary, she started to take on a new attitude. She was so determined to learn, it was amazing to watch her sponge up education. Leilah was attending Almondale Elementary where she played sports. It was so amazing to see her play, (basketball and volleyball) when she would run track everybody in the stands would stand up to watch her running hard and still smiling.
