Mahalo nui for all your kind comments. We are so happy to bring this beautiful mele and sweet memories to you. We have since lost our dear Aunty Pahukoa, so it is even sweeter now to all of us.

Watching these Uncles and Aunties sing reminds me of when I would play ukulele as a kid, with my grandmother's friends at their houses. Thanks for the great memories!

Mahalo! I am back to my small kid days at one of my Aunty Nini's backyard pa'inas with my tutuman and his brothers and sisters singing. This was one of their favorites! Thank you so much! I live in California, and this was a real treat! Keli'i
