Dear Mama,

How are you today?  Anything exciting? Nothing here today.  Just being lazy lani with the kids.  It's nice to just bum around the house.  I did that yesterday too.  It's getting a little too comfortable.  LOL

The other day I received a video from Melissa Ponder of the interview that she did with you.  It was so nice to see you sitting there.  When the video opens, you're sitting there staring in to the camera.  It was almost as if you were going to say something to me.  I laughed at all the words you tried to say & how animated your face got when you'd talk about certain things.  All the little small things that I no longer see everyday....I miss those things.  I laughed through tears when you were trying to say endocrinologist & that it was a ear, nose & throat specialist, because that's not what it is....but it's so you to say something like that.

In 2 weeks a few of us are off to participate at Uncle Mark Ho'omalu's competition, Ka Hula Hou.  I can't wait to go!!  The boys have been working so hard & I know that Uncle has high intentions of winning.  It adds fuel to his fire when the AHA boys post up videos & comments about how they're going to win.  Then the boys die a little more at the next practice.

As for things here, Nunu is enjoying 5th grade.  She likes her teacher & hasn't had much homework yet.  She's looking forward to middle school & is telling me which one she wants to go to.  I don't want to talk about it yet.  Ry is NAUGHTY!  She's so opposite of Nunu, she's aggressive, she's loud, she hits, she yells & is very independent.  Marcel has been working a ton & is learning to take a few days off here & there, which is a surprise.  Dad is doing well, still working, yet still enjoying spending time with everybody.  I am working on re-vamping my photography business, been doing a lot of zumba (3-5 days a week) & at hula 3 times a week....for now.  In October, we add one more practice.  I'm sure Marcel will not like that, but it's only for a month.

After Ia Oe, i'm hoping to have a fabulous 1 year get together for you.  I can't believe it's almost been a year. Where did the time go?

I hope that you are loving all that you are doing & experiencing things that you never got to when you were here.  There are no limitations for you, so do it all.  I love you & have been thinking of you so much lately.  I hope that you miss me too.
