17. Leanna’s effect on me! Leanna had a major effect on me, she has become apart of my family. I love when she comes over and gives me great big hugs with her beautiful smile. She has taught me how to enjoy the simplest things in life and the importance of making new and diverse friends. Leanna taught me to never be afraid to show who I truly am, and that life has so many precious moments. I still plan on hanging out with Leanna even after this project is over. Not only have I made a difference in her life but she has made a difference in mine. I can honestly say she has become one of my good friends.

18. Thanks for the happy days Leanna!
