Day 2 in Haiti

Gram,

You are the first person to write us back!  Thanks for the note.  We are doing great!  R.J. is opening up more and more.  After our visa appointment this morning, we visited the Toddler House where R.J. has been living, and the kids sang for us, and R.J. played the drum.  He is quite a good drummer!

 

R.J. and I were up with the sun at 4:50.  Papa woke up about 5:20.  We got our visa this morning.  Everything for the adoption is done, except for getting on the plane to come home!  Tomorrow we'll shop for souvenirs at the market, and probably meet R.J.'s birthmom.  Thursday we'll leave for home first thing in the morning.

 

There were several near-chances for a rain shower today, but the clouds passed us by.  God is holding off the rain so the mosquitoes don't come get me with their Dengue Fever!  :)

 

Tell Charlie we miss him a lot.  We can't wait to talk to him this evening.  Learning freestyle at age 5 is fantastic!  (You got it exactly right. Good job, Gram!)  Take care and we'll see you after just 2 more sleeps.

 

Love, Angie (for Phil and R.J., who prefers to be called R.J.!)

Hi

 

You three make a good looking group.  RJ Looks happy.  Just one little person missing from the picture.  Charlie will be glad to have you back;  he seems to be doing well but misses you of course. 

 

He did very well in swimming; started teaching him how to put his face in the water and then turning his head for a breath.  Also free style.  I think thats what its called; not being a swimmer.  He was really tired last night; hope he slept well for Pam.

 

See you in a couple of days.

Love, Mom
