We Are Family
A couple of months ago Leah started this sweet thing where she
took Peter and my hands at the dinner table and declared,"We are
a family!"
Then someone (school?) introduced her to the Sister Sledge song
and now the ritual has become more elaborate. At her birthday
dinner (bacon and biscuits with honey) she had the 7 of us join
hands and sing it. It went something like this.
"We are family. I got all my sisters and me. We are family. I got
my Grammie, and my Grampa, and my Mommy, and my Grandpa,
and my Grandma, and my Daddy, and my sister Zo-e! We are family."
