Finding JOY in the JOURNEY...: My husband is SUPERMAN...

August 9, 2008

My husband is SUPERMAN...

It always amazes me how many things Lee is good at!!! I have not seen him fail at ANYTHING he has tried to do. Wether it be cars, computers, construction or even FLOWERS...he is one of those people who can do anything and do it well. Most recently he has taken on the task of finsihing up the remodel on the B-side of the Kulanui house. My mom had a long list of requests for him to do and I thought how in the world is he going to do it all...but he has. By this time next week we will be relaxing in our newley remodeled house (that has a dishwasher and I am SOOO excited for that one...me and my simple pleasures) and I will have him to thank for it!!!

He rarely allows me to take pictures of him when he is working...but I snapped one of him putting up the plantaion blinds in the guest theatre room (formerly the second bedroom). After everything is decorated I will take pictures and post them for everyone to see:-) He just walked in and scolded me for putting this post up...he says that he is so NOT Superman...well he is to me and it's my BLOG and I will put whatever I want on it!!!!! LOL

Once upon a time...

Mibi grew up in Laie and attended Kahuku High and Lee grew up in Haleiwa and Mililani and attended Mililani High. Mibi went to College at BYU-Hawaii and then served a mission in the Utah Ogden Mission before meeting the man of her dreams. After school, Lee jumped into the workforce looking for his career and eventually ended up working for Mibi's family flower shop at Turtle Bay while Mibi was serving her mission...and never thought that this job would lead him to his "Angel". We met in Septmeber of 2001 after I returned home from my mission. I came back to the flower shop to manage things for my Mom and Lee had left to pursue his education. Well a few months later, Lee's education path didn't take the direction he had hoped and instead life lead him back to Turtle Bay. The first thing he did was call Mom to get his job back and of course she said YES. So, I was Lee's boss and there was an instant friendship...it felt as if we had known each other our entire lives. We kept it strictly business for a few weeks and then one night I was gong to make a Wal-Mart run after work and called him to see if he wanted to come along. His phone was busy (the days before call waiting) and I almost gave up...but after a few more tries he picked up and from that night on we were inseperable. I think we told each other our life stories that night and we both knew then that our lives would never be the same! Over the next year, we formed a deep love and respect for each other which kept us connected through a few rough patches and across the ocean as Mibi moved back to Utah. Finally after a year of being best friends, we both realized that there is no one on earth we would rather be with than each other! We were a couple for about two years when Lee proposed to me and we tied the knot at the exact place we first met...the same hotel the flower shop was located when we worked there...TURTLE BAY. And to add to our JOY, we have a beautiful daughter Savannah (Lee's biological and Mibi's spiritual daughter ) who we just ADORE! She is so smart, funny, outgoing, a jabberbox like her Dad and just the cutest thing you have ever seen!!! We also are praying that we can give her a little brother or sister sometime in the next year or two!!! Until then we have a Doberman (Kayla) and a cat (Shadow) that we spoil rotten and of course all of our Nieces and Nephew's. It has been almost 8 years of wedded bliss and although we have had our ups and downs, each experience has made us grow more in love with each other and are still each others best friend!
