MISSING MY KAHEALANI BECAUSE SHE IS "MY INSPIRATION & MOTIVATION".

ALOHA EVERYONE!!!

I NORMALLY ALWAYS UPDATE MY BLOG WITH FITNESS & FUN ON A WEEKLY BASIS, BUT THIS TIME I DID SOMETHING TOTALLY UNPLANNED AND JUST WENT WITH THE FLOW OF WHAT I'VE FELT AT THAT VERY MOMENT.

MY KAHEALANI HAS BEEN AWAY AND MOVED TO KEAUKAHA, HILO, HAWAI'I EXACTLY 4 YEARS AGO.  IT WAS AND STILL TO THIS DAY THE MOST DIFFICULT DECISION I'VE MADE AS I KNEW I WAS IN FOR THE BIGGEST "CHALLENGE" OF MY LIFE.

AND AS I LOOK BACK NOW AND SEE HOW FAR SHE'S PROGRESSED AND SUCCEEDED IN LIFE, I DON'T REGRET MY DECISION BUT IT DID COME WITH A PRICE AND SACRIFICE.

NOT BEING ABLE TO WITNESS THE DAILY LIFE AND GROWTH OF KAHEALANI, WAKING UP EVERYDAY AND NOT HAVING HER NEXT TO ME...  HOW I MISSED TUCKING HER INTO BED, WAKING HER UP FOR SCHOOL, HELPING HER WITH HER HOMEWORK, DROPPING OFF AND PICKING HER UP AT SCHOOL, LAUGHING AND WATCHING SCARY MOVIES, GOING TO THE PARK, HAVING HER FRIENDS SPENDING THE NIGHT ON WEEKENDS, AND SO ON.

AND NOW 4 YEARS LATER...

KAHEALANI HAS TRULY BLOSSOMED INTO A VERY BEAUTIFUL YOUNG GIRL FROM THE CUTE LITTLE ESKIMO HAWAIIAN GIRL WEARING HER KUSPUQ WITH HER HAWAIIAN ATTITUDE, PLAYING IN THE SNOW, PICKING BERRIES IN THE TUNDRA, TRAVELING UP TO EMMONAK, ALASKA, BUILT "AWWWESOME" FRIENDSHIPS WHERE EVER SHE WENT IN ALASKA SINCE SHE WAS A BABY!!!

NOW SHE HAS DIVERSE HERSELF INTO THE HAWAIIAN CULTURE FILLED WITH ALOHA AND LOVE FROM HER BEAUTIFUL OHANA IN KEAUKAHA, HILO, HAWAI'I.

SWIMMING IN THE OPEN BEACHES OF KEAUKAHA AND PLAYING WITH THE HONU UP CLOSE, DANCING AND EMBRACING THE HULA, LEARNING HAWAIIAN CHANTS, PLAYING THE UKULELE, MAKING NEW FRIENDSHIPS, PRETTY MUCH LIVING THE LIFE OF "HAWAI'I NEI", EVEN HER PIDGIN ACCENT IS DOWN TO EARTH...  LOL!!!

SO I MUST ALWAYS REMIND MYSELF WHY KAHEALANI IS WHERE SHE IS AT IN LIFE.  

"PERPETUATE"...  HER "BEAUTIFUL LIFE!!!"

KAHEALANI...  DADDY WILL ALWAYS BE THERE FOR YOU IN HEART & ALOHA!!!

KAHEALANI...  FROM THEN TO NOW.

ALOHA & MAHALO FOR ALL YOUR LOVE & SUPPORT TOWARDS KAHEALANI.

DAD, MOM, LOKELANI, LEHUANANI, LEOLANI, AND MANY OTHERS WHO HAS TAKEN THE TIME TO MOLD HER INTO A PRECIOUS YOUNG GIRL...  I AM FOREVER GRATEFUL TO EVERY ONE OF YOU!!!

I LOVE YOU ALL!!!

KAHEALANI AT KAMEHAMEHA SCHOOL KEAAU, HAWAI'I.
