Bula from Suva!
Just finished a long weekend and spent the holiday Monday afternoon walking with Mia and Joy through Suva's rainforest park at Coloi Suva - only after Joy promised not to cry and not to ask to be carried... quite an adventure. The girls ended up swimming in the pool by the spectacular waterfall in freezing water and ... Joy walked all the way there and back.
Here is the view from a lookout along the track.
We (Sina and the girls - Taholo will stay back for work) are planning to go to Tonga next week,Monday June 22nd. We will be there for 2 wks during the girls school holidays. We will be there for their Grandpa's 70th birthday and also for their uncle, Vilivaka's ordination as church Minister during the Methodist Annual Conference in Tonga. Their aunty Saiatua and uncle Sifa from NZ will also be there with their families. We are all looking forward for that and also have time to visit Tae's grave everyday while we are there.
Tae's dream for the cancer kids in Tonga and in the Pacific is still our dream and we will make sure that those dreams will come true. We are working on things right now and praying that it will all come out at the right time, with the right people and at the right place.
God bless you all
Walk on Walk strong!
(Those of you who are on bebo: Tae made sure before she left to give me her password for her bebo page so I am on it most times... under : tonungatonga )

Hi Sina, Joy, Mia & Taholo,
Very nice to see the girls out in the rain-forest.
Wow, how brave they were to swim in cold water but I can imagine it must be very fresh and cool.
Lovely picture of you and Tae at the end of the post. Keep the dreams alive and let the Ultimate dream maker make Tae's dreams happen for HIS GLORY!
Blessings with much love to you all

Sina,
Kou fiefia 'aupito he sio ki he ta 'o Mia mo Joy. Kou tui pe Sina kuo taimi ke foaki ange a e tokanga na'e ma'u 'e Tae kia Mia mo Joy.

Na'e fale'i mai e taha kia teau, ke tuku pe 'a Scott ia. Kau 'ange pe ha hingoa makehe ia 'o e tapuaki hono 2 'a e 'Otau kia teau. Make the second as unique and special as the first.
'I he 'aho ni, 'oku ou feifia he muimui he fale'i ko ia. Fakafeta'i na'a ne foaki mai 'a Scott, pea kuo polopolo ia ki langi ka e to e foaki mai mo Chris ko e tapuaki. Neu pehe 'e fe'unga pe hoku ivi mo Chris, ka e toe foaki mai 'a Emma. Toki fakakakato 'e Emma 'a 'ete fiefia faktauhifanau.
Tau fakahoko 'a e misi 'a Tae 'o 'ikai ko e tupu ko 'etau 'ofa li'oa 'ia Tae ka ko e tupu ko 'etau 'ilo ko e palani ia 'a e 'Otau ne fou 'ia Tae ke fakae'a ai hono KOLOLIA ki Mamani.
