Sorry I've been "gone" for so long- we've been getting into our groove here, settling into our new rental, me starting my new job, Sofia starting her new daycare and getting into our rhythm. All in all it's going well. Sofia has been a real trooper through it all, she loves her new place- especially the stairs and balcony upstairs (the echo is GREAT!). We are enjoying all the spontaneous get togethers that can occur now that we live in the same city as my family. We have our sad "miss Hawaii" moments and are a little tired of the question "why did you move from Hawaii?" (always follows when we tell ANYONE where we moved from- but we are glad to be here and feel really blessed for all that has come our way to make this happen. The job is going well, it'll be a good place to be for awhile. Sofia is starting to adjust to the new daycare- although we are having moments of acting like a 2 year old and I can tell she misses her friends and Lynnanne & family, she sees them in photos and still recognizes everyone. We miss seeing the Frayne's more often and hope to see them soon. Roland is busy getting us settled in and doing some preliminary house hunting, all the while job searching. I'm off to Hawaii next week for a meeting and then after that, I'm not sure when my next trip over will be...kind of weird. Well that's the update from this end....I'll be better about enteries now that we have our computer set up. I hope everyone is having a GREAT Valentines Day and we send out our love.
