After some crocodile tears this morning in light of the reality that we will have to leave our precious Kody behind and head back to the US without him (as planned all along) ... we decided another day at the beach would be the perfect thing! We decided lets CARPE DIEM!
So we got one day passes to one of the local hotels and just RELAXED! Kody loved the pool and loved the quietness of the hotel, although yes Kody truly is a happy boy really most of the time ... he is much more relaxed and talkative in non-stimulating environments ... so it was a PERFECT day of awesome bonding time! Oooohhhh what an amazing little guy he is; his whole face lights up when he smiles! And he loves to have his feet kissed, he thinks its really great and laughs and laughs ... what a joy he already is!***
Daddy and mommy also loved the pool and the quietness of the hotel :) The pool was surrounded by trees (all kinds) and we walked to the beach ... I LOVE the sounds of the waves! And I LOVE the beach!! It reminds me of the AWESOME God that we serve!

THANK YOU Jesus for the day today we had with our new precious and amazing son! What a SACRED GIFT he is!

Please keep the rest of our PAPERWORK (I-600 approval, release of the passport, medical for visa, and visa approval) in your prayers!

This truly is a GREAT song for Cody's little life! I hope your time at the beach was a time of getting FULL of the wonderful Holy Spirit's boldness to go on and His supernatural power to LOVE and TRUST! We see Jesus in you! Keep going.....soon Cody will be in his little bed in your home with your kiddos all peeking in on him over and over! That day WILL COME!
We love you and are so blessed to call you friends!
Carrie, Dave and Kiddos!
What a beautiful baby!! We are so happy for you all. We will be praying for you as you prepare to leave. What a day it will be when you will be reunited forever.
After Kate see's this we might be the first to five!!
Love, Kevin and Kate
Just another note to let you know you are in our prayers. The plane ride home between children is difficult to say the least but I know the hugs on the end of this flight will bring you peace.
Praying for the time you are away from Cody to be short.
continue to lean on Him- He'll always carry you.
