my girl


that's my girl. i honestly don't know what i'd do with out my kymora. she has stepped up so much at home, school, and soccer. she is always helping me with the baby so i can cook or get ready for the day. the thing is, she does it with pure joy. the minute she wakes up, she gets the baby, plays with him, sings to him. she does whatever it takes to make him happy. she's is the best big sister.

every teacher she has had said the same thing about her- she's the student every teacher wants. she's a joy. she's lovely. she has a great spirit. i love all these things about her. i never have to worry about her when it comes to school. i just know she will get it done.

this month, her painting was chosen from the entire 3rd grade to be displayed at the local yogurt store. she did a phenomenal job. it was such a treat for us to walk in, seeing it on display.

she seems to do well in everything she tries. she's awesome in soccer. she was beat up this past weekend, playing against a very physical team. she held her own. she learned a lesson about giving up and stood her ground. i'm so proud of her.

i hope she knows how much she means to this family. and to me. you're my special girl, kymora. i love you so much. thanks for being who you are. that's all i can ask. xo

kava a little over 8 months




i'm a little behind.. but not too much.

here's some pics of my spoiled child at 8 months. i say spoiled because my dad does not put this boy down. so, therefore, i can't put him down. i don't think it would be such a bad thing if i didn't have 2 other children to tend to; ie, make dinner, help with homework, bathe.

i know soon he'll walk, not wanting to be held, then soon he'll be in kindergarten, :(

he seems really interested in table food. if the boy had teeth (that's right, not one tooth) i would throw that crap in a jar out and give him some food.

he is quite the giggler. he laughs so easily. he is my happy guy.
8 months went by way too fast..
ps- i think he's going to have curly hair like kainoa.. that little curl on the side always pops out after a bath. ;) so cute.
