Hope everyone is well! I (Kamma) am home today because of a holiday...Admissions Day, the day Hawaii became a state! I bet you never knew you never knew...at least I get paid :) However, I have a yucky cold, so I guess it's a good thing I can stay home and rest.
We had a great time with my dad and Mikayla. We packed in so much in a relatively short amount of time. They also got a lot of relaxing time to just chill, which is what a vacation is supposed to be for! Sad to see them go back. I will post more pictures of their visit as soon as my dad sends me the ones he took (hint, hint Dad :)). Michael's parents are coming to visit on Tuesday and his brother Luke and girlfriend Jessie come on Wednesday. They will be here for about 10 days each. We are very excited to have more company and family around again! I'm just glad I'm sick now, so hopefully it will be gone by the time they are here.
I feel like time is just flying by. We've already been in Hawaii for over 5 months...crazy! Two of my closest friends have had babies while we've been gone...a big CONGRATULATIONS to Ashleigh and Steve and their little one Elizabeth Avery, and also to Ashley and Eric and their daughter Violet Grace...wish I could be there to hold your precious babies! It's so hard to try and feel a part of it all through just pictures, but I'm increasingly grateful for our electronically-advanced society. We've been enjoying watching the Olympics when we can...pretty amazing what talent and determination can accomplish!
My job is going really well...we have seven total children right now (can have eight at the most). I am the primary caregiver for three of them, a 3 month old, a 4 month old, and a 5 month old, and they are all boys. I'm supposed to be getting a 6-week old later this month as well...that'll be interesting! One of my little guys, Daezon (pronounced like "dazin"), the 3 month old, rolled over from his back to his tummy for the first time yesterday AND scooted forward a bit to get a toy...so exciting! The simple joys of a child-care provider! :)
I'll leave you with a quote...
"Don't ask yourself what the world needs. Ask yourself what makes you come alive, and go do that, because what the world needs is people who have come alive." -Gil Baillie
Love and blessings to you all!
