I love this picture of you. Everyone always talked about how big and round your eyes were. It's one of the reasons why I gave you the name Kamaka (meaning, the eyes). My grandmother on papa's side gave me my middle name "Makapumehana" which means "warm eyes". I was the only one in my family with a Hawaiian name. Grandma Sarah saw me and told Grandma Pola that my name would be that. It was a tradition that Grandma Sarah was to look at the child and give a Hawaiian name. No one got one but me....pretty special, wouldn't you say? And now I pass this on to you. Choose wisely my love. A name is forever. It defines the person who possesses it.
