Introduction

Welcome to my blog!!! I'm completely new and excited about entering into the world of blogging...so please don't be too harsh to judge.

I'm married to a WONDERFUL man, who I can't seem to express my love and gratitude enough for all that he's done for me and our kids. We have been extremely blessed with 4 children.

Our oldest child is a girl, Norma-Jean Malama Livai, who has found a great love, Semisi Livai, equal to her dad in love and caring for her. They now live in Kahuku, Hawaii, running their own business (Emergency Shelter for kids). We are vastly proud of their accomplishments...and continue to pray for their continued success.

Our second child is a boy, Philip Ma-Ching, who has also found the love of his life, Melissa Slaton, and are living in Buckley, Washington. Unlike, his older sister, he has been a challenge in being raised. But like his older sister, we love him just the same (challenge and all) Although, we continue to help him out in life, we are still proud of what he has been able to accomplish so far.

Our third child is a girl, Emmaureen Asalo, (but we call her Salo for short) who is now 18 years old. She is now and will always be living with us. She is disable with a diagnose of spastic cerebral palsy. She keeps us young and old at the same time. Anyone who has met her would say that she has a wonderful and contagious smile! There is so much life and energy in her that we continue to treasure.

Our fourth child is another girl, Haelie Marie, who will be 12 in a month. She is also disable with the same diagnose (spastic cerebral palsy). Unlike Salo, she is g-tube fed and can't talk; but like Salo, she expresses great life! (through gestures)

Like most parents, our children are our lives. Including our childhood lives, we believe that their lives have made us who we are today. Their accomplishments and challenges have built our strengths and knowledge.

Our memorable thoughts consists of special times spent with our children, and other childrens that we have come to meet during our service in the youth for church.

My husband works outside of the home and I work inside of the home, caring for our 2 younger girls. We enjoy going to the movies, restaurants, swimming, camping, site seeing, and traveling outside of Utah. We rarely do things as a couple because we include our kids in everything. (including valentine and wedding anniversary dinners) I know...it sounds pretty weird, but like I said previously, our children are our lives and we alter our lives to them.

Ok...so now that you've somewhat met us...Talofa and Welcome!
