a work in progress.

a beginning.

june 20, 2003 a girl was born. they named her leah michelle rodriguez. she was always happy. she loved to laugh, smile, bounce, and crawl. fast forward.

she's now 18 months. her mom? well she left. she stayed happy, no matter the pain. her dad was sent behind bars. she was sent with her grandparents. she stayed happy and laughing. then school came along.

she had no friends, no sleepovers, and no where to go except home. she loved her grandparents dearly. first day of second grade. nothing changed. she got home. silence. only the sound of her grandmother faintly weeping in the house. her grandfather left for maryland, leaving them behind. he went to go live with his sister.

end of second grade came along. her grandmother couldn't pay rent. they were left to live with her aunt. only a 40 minute drive away...
