"Ben"

I am able to write this right now because my precious little bundle is sleeping! He is so precious, and has bonded well with Jason. He smiles at me but prefers Jason. I love seeing them bond :-) It was a wonderful experience for both of us!! I can't tell you what it felt like to walk into that room, I recognized most of the babies immediately. It was AWESOME!!! I am exhausted and want to head home. Not sure how it happened but our trip is a long one! We won't arrive home until April 10th, I was trying to make sure I had enough days in there for the embassy. I wish now I would have come home a few days earlier.

Liberty,
It is so great how he got quiet when Jason picked him up,what a wonderful sign of great bonding!:)A Answered Prayer! Thank you so much for the beautiful pictures of our daughter,we love her curls.:) I know you are exhausted,but hang in there. I am sure the heat doesn't help any. Get some rest if you can and can't wait to see more pictures after you are rejuvinated. Take Care,Gidget

So glad that you finally have Ben. What a beautiful sight. Hopefully things continue to go well.

I saw that you used Todd G. for your travel arrangements. He is wonderful. He is also a miracle worker. Try contacting him to see if you can leave earlier...if it can be done...Todd can do it.

Enjoy your time with your new son.

What a sweet moment when Ben rested his head on Jason's shoulder. Just lovely! I'll second what Nadra said -- see if you can come home sooner! There's not much for a baby to do in a hotel room. :o) And the comforts of home feel so good when you've had a big -- but wonderful -- life change.

If you ever want to, feel free to e-mail me in those first days home, or we can talk by phone for some new mama support!

Congratulations -- he's just beautiful!
Nancy

I loved the video...probably not quite what you envisioned, but beautiful! When Jason picked him up, he settled down! SO Sweet! Hang in there, sister!

So glad to see your post! I love the video too! Hang in there- and hopefully you're able to see a bit of the city/area before you head back. India can be a startling place- so I'm praying you'll process all that you see and end up with a beautiful set of memories to tell Ben about in the future.
