Watch us grow!
This afternoon, Auntie Dot dropped off a Care Bear pillow that she made for Janie. Unfortunately, Janie was sleeping and later woke up to her new friend.
When I showed her the bear, Janie couldn’t take her eyes off of it. I think she likes Love-a-Lot Bear! Thank you, Auntie Dot!
This afternoon I took Janie to hula practice since I hadn’t seen my hula sisters since last October and of course they wanted to meet Little Janie.
Here’s a photo of her with Auntie Dot.
We had a front-row seat of practice and Janie LOVED watching them.
Maybe it’s the familiar music that we play at home or maybe it’s the uli ulis rattling rhythmically in-sync. I just know that she quietly sat in my lap and watched for 20 minutes straight without a peep or squirm. Then during the kahiko (acoustic/chanting) she fell asleep instantly. I think it’s because the rhythm of the gourd sounds like a heartbeat.
Can’t wait for her to be old enough to join the keiki group!
