Because we didn’t know Avi for the first 2.5 years of her life, learning her personality and quirks has been an absolute blast for me lately.  She does little things all the time that remind me of her daddy or her Aunt Marisa or even my own mother.  We don’t have young children in my family, so Avi is a fascination for us, a chance to see ourselves represented in a tiny little body.

And, if I look close enough, I even get a glimpse of myself in her every once in awhile.

Stunner shades and a puppy because, really, what more does a girl need in life?
