Our final days in Guam were spent at the beach, canoing, swimming, an attempt at a dolphin watching excursion turned snorkeling fun, and a polynesian dinner show. While on the island, we spotted many hermit crabs, birds (which Mya adorably chased--I felt like we had been depriving her living in Korea as there really aren't a whole lot of cute little birds to chase here), and tiny lizards. The girls were captivated each time we saw them on sidewalk, ceilings or anywhere else they roamed.

Chris taking the girls out for a ride in the kayak. Mya wasn't so sure at first, but quickly warmed up to the fun. |

Funny story...my Mom has all sorts of decor/figurines, etc. in their house. When we were visiting last summer, Mya disappeared. We found her bending down ever so slightly nose to nose with a set of hand carved pilgrims. It was the sweetest thing. It was as if she really thought they were real. Mya has done several things simliar. She looks very intently at things and stops to pet porcelin animals should we come across them. Case in point--this pig. We passed it several times a day and each time, Mya would stop to say hello. Sweetness. |

After the polynesian show, several cast members gave leis to children in the audience. Our girls each received one. I had them stop for a picture only to open the floodgates to many more photos from passers-by. I am not sure what our children are going to think when it is time to return to the states where they are not idolized and certainly not the have following they seem to have here ;)

Okay, funny story. Leaving the show, this guy wanted Mya and Claire to pose for a picture. Claire refused altogether and Mya was with Chris. When he tried to step aside and leave Mya for the picture, she started to follow. The next thing I knew, Chris this random guy and Mya were all posing for a picture. Ha! It was hilarious. Chris wasn't sure how it all transpired, but it was funny that he too was included in the paparazzi shot. I was chatting with my sister, Lisa, the other day about what these strangers do with the pictures of our kids. We were joking that they use them for their holiday cards. I don't know. I only hope for the best and pray they are in the"right" hands. |
