Today is a sad yet happy day. Unfortunately we have to leave for home today without our boy. But, on a good note we get to spend 3 hours with him before we leave.

We got to take him outside when we got there...just the three of us again. He was much more alert outside today and actually played with us pretty much the whole time. We had him walking, playing on the teeter-totter, and playing with toys. One thing he like to do was put his forehead up to mine...in this moment I don't think it is possible to love anything more. Plus, his smile is so sweet and when he looks at you with those big brown eyes you just melt. He ended up falling asleep in Brian's arms...what a wonderful sight. Another first..."dad & son" moment that we will never forget.

When it came time to leave it was very hard because he was still asleep and I had this aching to take him home. But, now we know he's there and will be waiting for us to come back for him.
