Very nice, Jennifer! I consider the difference between branches and leaves in a family tree, but your decision of "leaves" makes it more organic; the overtones of "leaving/ left" also bring extra resonance. Lots happening here in this inviting haiku.

I enjoy the gentleness of this haiku and the intimacy.
