someone SPECIAL is having a birthday

All of us

including growing baby Hanamaikai, want to wish YOU a

Happy Birthday!
We hope you know how much you mean to us, and even though you are far from us (in person) at this time, you are never far from us in our hearts!

WE LOVE YOU!!

The kids have a message for their SPECIAL grandma, who is too far away to get these cards in person (and since their mom didn't plan far enough in advance to get them sent in the mail).

Grandma you should feel pretty special, because Ame has become very NERVOUS and STINGY about performing Hula. Just ask Jason who asks her to do it everytime he sees her! She has just gotten so much more self conscious, which I don't know why because she really has gotten quite good and looks so darn cute when she actually does it! (hopefully I can convince her to do it for her Kindergarten talent show coming up at the end of the school year)

Sorry, I tried and tried to figure out how to turn this around. I guess you will have to get a kink in your neck while you enjoy this one (or turn your laptop sideways). Note-to-self: DON'T FILM WITH CAMERA VERTICAL! Cannot rotate it like you can a picture.

Ame decided it needed to be MORE professional, so she had to add some real costume pieces, before she could do her next dance. ENJOY!
