Leilani was a joy and brought happiness to everyone she was in contact with. She loved her cupcakes and chocolate. Her favorite things to do was to sing and dance. She loved her some Moana and Poppy. She was learning her animals and their sounds. Her favorite was a tiger, and she could Roar. Leilani could count to 20 and would give us concerts singing her favorite songs. Leilani loved her mom more than life itself. Leilani was the BOSS and she knew it! Being outside was her passion and had to have her shades on. Leilani and her uncle CJ had a very special bond that could not be broken.
