Friday July 14th.

Note from Darlene:
First and foremost…”HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD!!!” Man, do we have a great birthday present for you this year…a new grand daughter!! :o)

We ran into the couple with the sick baby this afternoon. The doctor at the White Swan hotel put her on antibiotics and she is receiving breathing treatments for bronchitis and tonsillitis. He also gave them something to bring down her fever. Her color was so much better, Keith and I were so relieved to know that she was ok. Her parents said that the doctor at the White Swan was very nice and personable; they were very pleased with the care their daughter received.

We all went shopping today, sight seeing on the island and swimming in the afternoon. When Kaylee is tired she will whimper and big crocodile tears will roll down her face. It breaks my heart to see this so we quickly wrap up what ever we’re doing and head back to the hotel. She likes a warm bottle of formula at naptime/bedtime; it puts her right to sleep.

Did I mention that we have the perfect baby? She likes to imitate what I do; especially yawning…she is soooooooo funny!! We are going to a temple tomorrow and the toy market…I’ll never get Keith out of the toy market…sigh.

My brother told me something that I always remembered when I would feel my confidence wavering about adopting a child and starting all over again. He told me right after I finished the 2005 Hawaiian Marathon that if I could participate and finish a full 26.2 mile marathon at the age of 45 that I could certainly raise another child! The marathon was grueling; Kaylee is such a sweet and loving child that she makes it easy.
