January 28th

You've just sent us a text that you've arrived in Lima. I was waiting up for it because I knew I wouldn't be able to sleep without knowing. I'm so glad to hear you're there. I know you're still emotionally fragile, but remember you've had no real sleep in a long time so you'll feel better when you can catch up on your sleep. Plus, make sure you try to eat healthily and drink lots of fluids to help with your adjustment. I've been practicing my texting but I'm not really used to it. I'd prefer to use this blog. Today we all went to Punahou for work and school. Then, I coached at the club while Sierra had piano and Jay froze his butt off at swim practice. We had pasta and red sauce for dinner and played a few games of Blokus before putting Sisi to bed and waiting to hear from you. Tutu and Papa have just walked in the door. They've just returned from their trip and wanted to spend the night here so Tutu could go to yoga and they could shop tomorrow to stock up for their return to Molokai tomorrow. I might have to sleep in your bed tonight because I miss you so. KNOW that we love you and that we're so proud of you. You are really an inspiration!
