( this was supposed to be posted on monday) We visited little T for the last time today. We were put in a bedroom with just him. Where we showed him how to color with a crayon. He figured it out pretty quickly but wasn't too interested. So instead he just held them, have them to us , or put them all back in the box. He was also into the plastic zoo animals that Grandma Kalkman sent with us. At first he did not want to be carried or held by mom but then realized how nice it was. The rest of us got to hold him for a short time. We were there in the morning and stayed till the beginning if his nap time. We got the chance to give him his lunch which was rice with chopped up carrots. The first few bits he enjoyed, then he started to spit it rice out. The nanny even tried feeding him and he did the same. Mom held him and he fell asleep on her. Almost all of us cried but you shouldn't be too surprised. He had a cold so that is why he wasn't too hungry. This trip we have had a total of at least 7 hours with little T. It didn't seem near that much buy they told us we would only he to see him for a hour and 45 min. It was a bittersweet goodbye but we know we will see him in not long. We fly out on Tuesdaynight at 10:15 ( Ethiopian time ) so 3:15 Michigan time. We will arrive at the GR airport at 2:30. We are not ready to leave Ethiopia at all. Definitely can feel your prayers on the other side of the world. So blessed beyond words !
