I remember Tanja and Kayla coming in to pick up Michelle at daycare.She was always so shy, I know how much Kayla will miss her sister and Lars your special little girl. I saw the girls not long ago walking together and how pretty they had become as young women. I am truly sorry for your loss, and keep you in thought and prayer.
