Hey guys...so sorry I forgot to include the story that I promised to tell you.
So here it goes...
Brandon's dad had a dream one weekend about Kamakana and in the dream he was playing with me and was trying to hide from 'grandpa.' He was wearing a green collared shirt in that dream that had dark colored stripes on it and khaki colored shorts. Then later on that week he felt compelled to go to Ross so he did. When he got there he found a shirt that looked exactly like the one Caleb was wearing in his dream and shorts too. And that was the only one they had that looked like that. And the size was SIZE 6. coincidence? or God? i think it was God. So if we have to wait till then, thats not much...we can wait. So what do you all think it means? Is God giving us a sign?

Caleb had a good night last night. He actually slept! I was so relieved. I was able to get some zzz's too because he doesn't need suctioning when he's asleep. It was the first night...so nice. But of course Micaiah had to wake up last night. At least I got some sleep though before he awoke. We took a walk with Caleb and Micaiah earlier this evening. They both really enjoyed it. Caleb has also been doing really well with his physical therapy that we do with him everyday. We are so amazed at his strength and his persistence in doing everything he needs to do to get better...including everyday prayers we say with him. He's such a strong little boy. The other night my sister "helped"Caleb play with all his cousins. They were playing ring around the rosie and chasing each other and one of his cousins, Tiara, was constantly at his side and helping us with everything. It was so cute and she was so faithful at being there for him and so helpful to us. I'm sure that made him really happy. Tonight Caleb kissed me (by closing his mouth) and I asked him to smile and it seemed as if he did give a little smile. How I miss that beaming little smile. We watched some videos of him tonight. It made me cry a little...I can't wait till he's running around and talking again...one day, one day. We are taking it step by step. I know it will happen. So we did take him to church on Sunday and he did well. He did need suctioning and the nurse suctioned him in church....that machine is loud. But it actually wasn't that bad i thought. It was just nice to take him out somewhere.

Thank you for your prayers that I requested...My friend Daralyn's grandma passed away on Saturday. A couple hours after I posted the blog in fact. She is home now with our Lord and we know that she is happy. But please pray for the family that they may be at peace and that they may be comforted. Thank you!

Till my next blog... A HUI HOU!

Wow, Caleb was with you in church. What a great experience and testimony.
May the Lord strengthen all of you as you are working around the clock---don't forget to keep your own health up: caleb and Micaiah wants a healthy Mom and Dad.
We love you and are praying for more and more progress as the Life-story unfolds.

Hi, we're your neighbors further down the road on Oio- the one with the big play structures in the front yard and sunflower seeds. We dropped off some food right after Kamakana went to the hospital, and happened to walk by yesterday evening (our kids were playing with Callie). Let us know if there's anything we can help with, fundraising, need a rest - just give us a call 393-8933. We've got lots of children's books if you'd like more to read to Kamakana. WE're glad he's home and keep him in our thoughts to grow stronger day by day.

Aloha Kehau...Thank you for making time to come to WITW tonight. I will miss seeing you for the next few weeks...hope we can get together before we start our next session. Your testimony is so powerful and continues to inspire so many people. Could you feel all the love and admiration in the room tonight after you spoke? So AWESOME. The Holy Spirit was definitely in the house tonight. You have touched many hearts there...actually EVERYWHERE. I will keep you all in my prayers and hope that you get the help you need to get some rest. Please call me if you need anything.
Love You!
