What I really love about the portrayal of Leni's character is that, despite being a dumb blonde, the writers do a lot to make her much more three-dimensional than just the typical ignorant valley-girl that is usually used. Even if she is hopelessly naïve, there is a great emphasis on her kind and considerate nature, contrasting with her siblings' more head-strong behavior. The writers spend plenty of time focusing on her inter-personal skills, which, while overlooked, is a very good skill to have. Time and time again, we have seen that Leni is a very smart people-person, having a deep understanding of what certain individuals desire in their life and what would be best for them. Inter-personal intelligence gets overlooked too much but Leni is a fantastic example of someone with this type of intelligence.

She also seems to exhibit at least some competence with basic life skills, like babysitting and cooking. Again, props to the writers for rounding-out her character instead of making her a pure joke.
