Kristi Yamaguchi: Since 1998 Hyundai dealers across the country along with Hyundai Motor America have proudly supported pediatric cancer research with donations of more than six million dollars. This year, Hyundai is proudly partnered with Cure Search National Childhood Cancer Foundation to continue to raise awareness for this important cause. The Hyundai Hope on Wheels Santa Fe travels all over the country collecting colorful hand prints from children who are battling and beating pediatric cancer. The Hyundai Hope on Wheels Tour visits children's hospitals and special events throughout the country to celebrate milestones in cancer treatment and to spread a message of hope in finding a cure for pediatric cancer. With continued funding for pediatric cancer research, our goal is to see a cure rate of a hundred percent and to reach a day when this car is hand print free.
Ilia: (unedited) I think this change for me would be when Liza arrived. The first biggest change would be changing my personal priorities, you know, for myself. Cause it usually was for me all about me, all about me. Now, schedule changed, priority change. It's a lot of pleasure of having her close, you know. And raise her, be a part of her. It's just amazing feeling.
Katia: Daria. She is a teenager.
Dasha: I'm not very calm.
Katia: She cares about the other people. If it's her friends, if it's relative. She is...
Dasha: Outgoing and hyper.
Ilia: Liza just more hyper.
Dasha: Even more hyper.
Katia about Liza She is like me in a character. It's hard to say, she is still so young. But, yes, she is sweet like Ilia and as calm and as quiet as Ilia.
Katia: For me, I see Daria every day skate. So I don't know how we look together. But of course, I am nervous.
Dasha: I think it's like a lot of fun for me to skate with my Mom because I get really nervous when I skate by myself. So it is not as nerve wracking as when I get to skate with my Mom.
Katia: Oh that's why she doesn't get nervous. I am nervous more.
Dasha: It's kind of like really cool that I get to skate with my Mom. I get to do like shows and stuff like that unlike other people. And I feel really like happy that I can be able to have that experience to do that.
