(Although I could so use his help with tennis right now.) We have 30 kids on our teams. 30!!! Last night I was late to our practice (Rach had a vball game) and poor Kevin was trying to deal with all these kids. Jimmy and all his buddies were just wacking balls at each other. So today I emailed the parents and said they had to help or else. I guess or else we'll start charging them to get paid for our free babysitting.<br /><br />You are so lucky you have grandparents to go and visit. Mine were gone before I got to Jr. High. My mom has recently reconnected with her nieces and nephews so that's good. I guess that would be my cousins, but they are in their 60's so I don't know them at all. <br /><br />Oh, sad note, Uncle Tommy Kamae passed away this morning. That's the ukulele aunty Thelma's hub. He just had his 70's bday on Monday and they had a huge party for him. Nice that he had a big bash as one of his last days.Marthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09204531744552663314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3946400564585392549.post-74895547753703694562010-09-03T15:47:30.929-06:002010-09-03T15:47:30.929-06:00Cute house!

There is some unnecessarily dramatic drama going on in my family right now and I just want to say to people, "Do you realize who you're talking to? Your family that you've loved and known your whole life? And who you can't escape from? Do you want them to have the memory of how you're treating them forever?" Maybe instead, I'll just tell them to balance the past and future. That sounds easier.Barbaloothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01541675474218507411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3946400564585392549.post-29899933676639410612010-09-03T14:20:28.087-06:002010-09-03T14:20:28.087-06:00Oh, I love it!

Carmel with a trunk full of questions and leave with no answers? That your efforts to bring clarity to a distorted past will also bring peace for future generations?<br />Family secrets are great when it's a recipe for chicken salad, but they're painful when they're about relationships. <br />I appreciate your journey.Momzahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01078211684662158122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3946400564585392549.post-26821847746190869272010-09-03T06:27:21.750-06:002010-09-03T06:27:21.750-06:00You are the wisest dummy ever.You are the wisest dummy ever.I am LoWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01143055801646733494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3946400564585392549.post-5813067171786398342010-09-02T23:57:59.146-06:002010-09-02T23:57:59.146-06:00how obnoxious can I be?
