Veni's kindergarten interview

Took my son to meet his teacher today and see how much he knew. at first I was nervous about him going to school because he's never went to daycare or anything else that has kids minus me or his sisters. watching him yesterday interact with his dr. and then today with his to-be teacher eases my worries. he was very confident counting and letting her know that he could write his name. he even wrote some of his numbers for her. i was a proud mom, but daddy's the one to get the credit for always pushing him to practice his writing.

now working rates with Ane and Eni. we are the night crew. the ones who's daytime lives are messed up cuz we live here at work and are up all night. My girls had their 1st day of back to school today. My son and I went to get his immunizations and the poor little guys tears were so sad. I hated taking him. if they ask for my kids to get a flu shot in the fall, I also say "no". i remember as a child we only went once and my mom tells me its because my dad hated for them to hurt us as well. i know in the long run its sppsd to help but a parent cant stand to see their child hurt. that's when mama bear comes out lol grandma has since moved to my aunt's house and my mother in law is here visiting with us. She leaves this sunday, but it's been good for her to bond w/her grandkids. my mom has helped tons with her and so has Finau Selu.her box is ready to go. Veni and I went to visit gma today and miss her. glad to have spent time with her. took her some money. she looks happy and healthy. since lita's passed I missed Lita a lot and I only helped with appts and little runs to the store etc. I cant imagine how much gma misses her when she was the nurse and chef for Lita. i got the bad news that being a nurse would be a downgrade in pay and it doesnt make sense for me when I am on a roll paying off our debt. by this time next year I will be out of debt paying the way we do now. Can't explain what happiness that brings. i cant go to school for another 6yrs to find that we're in worse debt and unhappy. Keai, me and our kids got to visit SFO last month. made me appreciate my job and how we can jump on a flight and leave for the weekend. when we came home Keai wasnt feeling so well and we got 1 first class seat so we let him have it. I was so proud sitting in coach that I could give that to him and help. so glad we got into rates. way nonstressful. that's all I can ask for in a job..flexibility, good pay, and good coworkers. luv it.
