Surprise Surprise!

Just a quick one for right now! Rachana is with us at the Hyatt! YEAH! We are a little stressed since it was a complete surprise that they let us take her a day early! She is finally relaxing with her daddy but it was a difficult departure! "I want to go to my room" is what she was saying in Nepali over and over again(VERY LOUDLY)! Goodness knows what the local people were thinking! We will put pictures up a little later! Big day and we are all emotionally exhausted!

  4. What a great surprise! It's going to take time for her to adjust for so many reasons. Every parent and child need to get used to each other. Just from all the pictures I've seen, the love shows. Give her time and she'll realize that the love is forever and not just for a visit. My Mom and Dad send love and prayers to all of you.

    Love,
    Rosalie

  7. you are doing the right thing. you have prepared for today for a long time: sing a song, read a book, let her color, go for an adventure through the hotel. remember most girls uses their rooms as their sanctuary even as they/we get older. she will love to spend time with you and mick....and imagine the bond you three are already forming- PRICELESS. xoxo

  9. I am so very happy and so very touched by what you and all the workers over there are doing. It will be a bumpy road but you have so much support and I know you all will do great.

    One day at a time.

  11. What great news! I know she was a little upset at first but it seems like Mommy and Daddy's unconditional love calmed her down. She totally knows she is in a safe and blessed place and this is her new home! Keep doing what you are doing and know you two are really special people! All our love..j, j, & j
