Alena Mae

Delicate, pretty,
independent. Off you go.
You never sit still.

Dainty head thrown back,
mouth agape, you shriek and laugh,
emphatically: Girl.

Mischievous one,
you expect a lot from me,
you push me further.

Clever, witty, bold,
I treasure every moment
you're still a baby.

Daughter. Sister. Child.
You finish our family,
you sparkle with light.

Our Alena Mae.
Little Meira Margalit.
Lena. Baby A.

I love getting to see pictures of your kids. Elias has grown SO much and Alena is just a little doll! Her personality, the way you describe it, sounds a little like my daughter.
