Joshua is now the proud owner of a U.S. passport at age 15 days! Thank God for the speed of this processing! Jenn thought that yesterday was Joshua's 2 week doctor appointment so we hauled the whole family down to the doctor's office only to find out she had the wrong date. Fortunately, the trip was not wasted. We took a jaunt across the street to the Botanic Gardens for a few pictures, and then learned Josh's passport was ready for pick-up at the U.S. embassy next door. For about half a day we entertained ideas of going home early, but then we found out the next document won't be complete until February 8th. So we are sticking with the original plan of heading home on February 11th.

Thoughts of Bethany
I didn't remember right away on the morning of Joshua's 15th day. Dave reminded me. We had 15 sweet and painful days with Bethany before she went to Jesus. I haven't been able to help remembering some of the events of those 15 days and contrast them with the last 15 days we've had with our very healthy boy. Now our hearts and our hours are full of joy and gratitude for Jonathan and Joshua ....except for that one missing piece that is Bethany ....the piece that will be found again when we are reunited in heaven someday. On the days when Jonathan is driving me crazy and Joshua is struggling with gas bubbles in his tummy, it's nice to know I have one child who is perfect in heaven!
Bethany's website is still up.
