Twelve Stitches
Anakai slipped and hit her head.
She had to go to the ER.
She was SOOOO brave!
What a day!

At the Beach
This photo reminded me of the one below.
Girrrrrrl!

Tardy Twice?
Yesterday morning, I received a call from school saying Anakai was late for class. Hmmm... I only received one call, and no call for Kacia. Anakai had a tardy call once prior. I wonder what is going on?
I picked up the twinkies from school, as usual. On the way home, I asked them my typical set of inquiries about their day at school, "What did you learn today? Did you finish your lunch?" They answered enthusiastically. Then I got more specific, "Anakai sweetheart. Were you late for class this morning?"
"No. I was not late. I went to my class." Anakai replied.
"Did you go the wrong way, like last time?"
"No Mama. I did not got the wrong way. I went the right way."
"Did you go to the wrong classroom?"
"No Mama. I went to the right classroom. I'm in Ms. Pomerantz's class."
Hmmm... strange. Then Kacia began to say something, "I have a new job in my class. I am a messenger! I am a messenger with Alejandro." How sweet,
"What do you have to do to be a messenger, Kacia?"
"We have to carry an envelope to the office, or another classroom."
"You do?!" I say in my ever adoring mama voice.
Then Anakai begins to talk to herself... I go to this hallway and I look in this corner room. No, that's not my class. Then I walk to another hallway and I look in this corner and.... no, that's not my class either. Then I walk to the other corner, then I look, and this one is my classroom!
Ah-ha!!! It sounds like Anakai wanders around the school before going to her classroom. I ask her, "Anakai, what is your classroom number?" She doesn't know the answer. Kacia blurts, "My classroom is 10-105!"
"Anakai, is your classroom also 10-105?"
"No! I am not in Kacia's class. I am in Ms. Pomerantz's class!"
"That's right Anakai. Your classroom is 10-101."
I have her repeat it back to me.
The next morning on the way to school, I asked her again, "Anakai, what is your classroom number?" She is correct, but I'm not convinced. (This is the part where I come up with a brilliant mama idea!)
"Kacia, I have a job for you." She's enthusiastic about being appointed a task.
"What's my new job, Mama?"
"You can be mama's messenger this morning. Can you walk your sister to her classroom first, before you go to your classroom?
"Yes I can! Anakai is in Ms. Pomerantz class. That is room 10-101. Then I will go to my class after."
"Perfect."
The End. Hopefully....

Mama's Sleeping
One morning, I decided to sleep in.
When I finally woke up, this is what I found on my pillow.

Soccer Season
Twinkies at their first soccer practice.
Here's an enthusiastic Anakai, slightly unsure about what's going on,
but Coach Steve seems to know just how to coach her!
We got orange soccer socks!
We are the orange team.
Kacia's #2 and Anakai's #3.
Mom took these pictures while I was away, thanks mom :)! Then she recaptured for me, the essence of their very first soccer game. Here's her story... Coach Steve said neither one of the twins made any technical mistakes. Anakai was absolutely thrilled when she was able to dribble the soccer ball, past so many people, then kick it straight into the goal post, score! She pumped her arms in the air and even hooted in celebration :)
That's when Coach Steve told Anakai, she just scored a point for the opponent. "Not this goal post, the o t h e r goal post!" :(
Mom explains there are no goalies at this stage. This game was the first time they actually used the goal posts. At practice, they stuck to doing ball control drills. So Anakai did kick a goal. Not only once... but two more times. A total of three points, in the wrong goal post.
The next game can only get better!
