We had a very exhausting and stressful day yesterday securing a signature we needed to get Elian’s visa but I’m not going to dwell on that because we got it and we’re going home.  TOGETHER!  Praise be to the Lord.  Hopefully when we get home I’ll have enough energy to blog about that ordeal.  We finally got his visa today with a mere 8 hours to spare before our departure back home.  And although I’ve been ready to leave for awhile I’m also sad to leave behind Bogota, our friends here and the wild and wonderful journey we’ve had together starting our family.  But I know someday we’ll be back and the next time I wander these streets this beautiful city will take me on a sentimental journey remembering our first days together as a family.

We love you Bogota. Thank you for giving us our beautiful son.
