Genesis, age 4

I Wish to Go to Hawaii and Learn the Hula
Genesis

Genesis, age 4, is outgoing and playful and loves to perform. One day while watching cartoons and recovering from chemotherapy treatment for leukemia, Genesis became captivated by a Hawaiian character doing the hula dance. Always one to jump right in, Genesis began to do the hula the best she could. Now her one heartfelt wish is to go to Hawaii and learn the dance from a kumu hula, or knowledgable hula teacher, with beautful, traditional music playing in the background. Hô (wow), what a wonderful wish!
