Yesterday, she appeared in the doorway beaming a smile that could literally have reached ear to perfect little ear.
"Wow! You look happy!" I said.
"Ye-ya-yah" she said in that adorable I-add-a-third-syllable-to-every-word kind of four year old way. "Emma's leaves are back!!! They're baaaack!!!* You said when Emma's leaves comed back we could take a picture!! Get your camera!! Get it!! Now!!"
So I did.
And it felt so good to be fulfilling that promise made on a chilly fall day when tears fell in unison with her leaves.
Today - all sun - all smiles...and*for clarification, they did not come back overnight like a sister-angel miracle, but I waited for Ms. Comedian to notice for herself -and it was well worth it!

What a sweet story. So glad her leaves are back (at least for now again)!
That is unbelievably cute
What a sweetie! And the tree is gorgeous! :)
The bush is gorgeous. And Ms. Comedian is just delish! Of course, you know I'm her fan!
There is something so infectious about The Comedian's smile.
I bet you hear that all the time.
What a wonderful moment!
How very sweet! I love when little ones have those 'aha' moments.
That is a very cute story.
How Nice! Comedian did notice it after all! And she did notice eventually...is very very important...
What kind of tree is that? I know it is Emma's memory - is it a fruit tree or flowering tree or a shady tree?
Hooray! What a zest for life...
Aww how beautiful and sweet! I love it!
What a great picture and story.
