We got Him!!!!!!!!!!

Hello Everyone,

After a total of 35 hours of traveling to be here in Vietnam we got HIM!!! Henry met us at the airport at 9:50 this morning and asked if we would like to travel out to Can Tho today! We of course said YES!! So Henry and the other two FAITH Staff traveled with us an additional 4 hours to Caleb's orphanage. Caleb is HANDSOME and smiley. We spent about 30 minutes at the orphanage and we took pictures of some of the beautiful children whose families are waiting for them. The bummer thing is that our lap top is not working properly and so we are having to use the hotel computer. We will try to get our computer figured out tonight and see if we can't then upload the pictures.

Hi Cambria and Carisa. Mommy and Daddy miss you and we cannot wait for you to meet your new little brother! He already loves to push buttons and throw things!! He kept pointing at your pictures. I think he is going to really love you!!

Mandy, Noah's friend is no longer at the orphanage. But we passed on that your family is doing well. They were all glad to hear it!

Marcia, your daughter is beautiful!!! What a sweet spirit and lots of spunk. She was so cute and shy in front of the camera. She has a contagious smile. Henry is hard at work for you right now!

Angela, We got several photos of your baby and I got to hold him. He is really solid and strong. He was being fed a bottle and he turned his head and grinned for me when I first snapped his picture. He has a very good disposition and he has the absolute cutest cheeks!!

The babies rooms are a lot brighter and cheerier than I pictured. Henry said that they want to eventually replace all of the painted cribs with stainless ones. Then the rooms will look really new. They are very clean and the nannies that we met had a very pleasant disposition and manner with the children.
