2008 has been a hectic year for us
First of all,
Danny is legally Kim & Mike's son now,
his adoption was final on National Adoption Day.
He's a busy active little 17 month old!
Avery has been a busy little boy as usual
He's still at Tutu & Me
attending the program every Tuesdays and Wednesdays
He is now 4 and a 1/2
still loving his trains
He'll be starting the head start program at Jefferson's on January 13th
He's a little afraid but we all went thru that, didn't we??
Kevin who is now 18 is working at
Sears at Ala Moana Center
in the Merchandise Pick Up Department
and loving it.
What he hates about it is he normally starts early
in the morning and the ones that know him,
knows that he's not a morning person.
As for me, I have not been getting any better.
still having eye problems
vision is still not clear
and still suffering from chronic neck & back pain
We all hope that everyone stays healthy for
the new year!
Stay in touch!!

Our New Year's Day Tradition
Since I was raised in a traditional Japanese cultured family,
our New Year's day is spent with our family, and visiting
Buddhist/Shinto shrines. Although my kids and I aren't Buddhist
or Shinto, we still honor our ancestors by carrying on the tradition.
During the eve night is when I usually start preparing for our New Year's feast.
After everyone gets up and
we've eaten our good luck soup, we usually head out to the temples.
