What did YOU do yesterday? Yesterday I went to see an autopsy as part of my EMT class. It was a young-ish woman who died unexpectedly. The most unnerving part was all in my head. I'm not squeamish in the least so what bothered me the most was how it applied to me...I was thinking to myself, "just yesterday this lady was sitting down drinking coffee, worried about her mortgage bill and complaining about her husband's dirty laundry on the floor. Little did she know that in 24 hours she'd be dead, laying butt naked on a cold steel table with her gut split wide open and organs sliced into pieces" That easily could have been me...I had to ask myself, did I do the most I could do with the time I had yesterday? What would I have done differently if I had known that would be my last day on earth? I know it's cliche but TRULY we need to live each day to the fullest, never knowing when our time will come.
Just a little food for thought.
Something funny...when I took the twins to school today, Isaiah's teacher told me that yesterday ELIJAH was in her classroom playing before school, and the bell rang, and the children lined up but he didn't. So she was calling him "Isaiah, time to get in line" and he didn't even look up or answer her. Over and over she called him, getting more frustrated, "ISAIAH, IT'S TIME TO LINE UP!" and he just would not acknowledge her. Then finally Isaiah spoke up from the line and said "That's Elijah" hahahaha!
Also, this was the first day Elijah did not cry at school. He does fine in class but cries when it's lunchtime because he "can't find his kumu" (teacher) and there's children everywhere, I think he is overwhelmed and feels lost. But today he said his brother ate with him and he was fine. I hope they will let that happen everyday. I feel bad for him because Isaiah is adjusting just fine, but it seems like Elijah needs him for comfort.
I feel bad, I have no new pictures to share : ( next time for sure ok!  ¶ 8:55 PM 4Mana'o
