Day 16

For the past few days, I’ve been working on a video with pictures & clips.  The song is a song I wrote in June of this year.  Hope you enjoy!

Today was another day around the apartment.  In the morning (Monday), we’ll be going for Malachi’s medical exam.  This is needed to receive his visa.  Hopefully after the exam we can have our visa interview, but it will depend on the US Embassy’s schedule, and when Malachi’s passport arrives.  We aren’t totally sure when we’ll be able to leave–we can’t until the visa and passport are completed!

Also, today we were reminded that we definitely have a two-year old boy!  There was lots more fussing, sometimes clawing, scratching, biting, etc.  I don’t think he was necessarily trying to act out, but he wasn’t afraid to let us know when he wanted something, or wasn’t okay!  Please pray for us with all this.  We need help to “interpret” what he’s saying to us so we can help him.  Sometimes he’ll make these horrendous faces, and it looks like he’s in lots of pain.  He is teething, and we are trying to get him to poop too (he hasn’t since we got him).  Last night he slept lots better (so did his parents!), and we shared some very special moments as a family today too.
