Here's another video to keep Jess on everyone's mind...
Thank you for your prayers. We still haven't had any further word but hope springs eternal.
Suzanne's girls loved this video. I posted it last Feb after our trip. Suzanne had just brought her girls HOME.... FINALLY
She said they loved watching it
I still get a kick out of watching her discover how this cool tube works. She's never had something like this. She's just experimenting with putting things in it and making her voice echo and shaking it all up...
And her sweet little "Didida" as she tries to say her name.
The "Ma-MM" at the end with that little face just cracks me up.
Oh, how we love this little girl!

Who Knew It Worked With Orphans as Well
I've seen people get their dogs or cats to chase a laser light, but we really had no idea that the kids would be so fascinated by it. Jess and Collin where very serious about trying to squash that thing....

Love How She Sings This
Guess even the 2 1/2 year olds pick up a few things from the teacher at the orphanage....

More for Suzanne's Girls...
I have a new internet friend who just brought her girls home from Haiti this last week. She said they just love watching the video we posted of Jessica.
Here's two more for your girls!

Di-Di-Da
Jessica is such a sweet little girl. She's very clever. She loves to mimic your actions (more on that in a different post). She generally likes to share. She loves to hand things to you and say "Meh!" (I have no idea what that means to her, but that's what she says.) She grins and gets bashful when you say "Merci beaucoup" after she hands you something.
She's a happy little bug. She can keep herself quite happy by marching back and forth in the room. She stomps her feet as she marches and claps her hands in time with her feet and just makes random noises while she does this.
She realized pretty quickly that Nathan was smaller than her and so she likes to "mother" him. (I know, they're only a couple of months apart and neither of them have reached the age of two, but that's what she does.) She likes to make sure he has a cup of water. She tries to "fix" his hair. (Yeah, that went over well.) Of course she takes away his toys and hits him when she's annoyed. They're siblings and toddlers so we wouldn't expect anything less.
She had "Papa" figured out pretty early in the trip. She could tell you who Papa was when you pointed to her. "Mama" was harder for her to say, so I was "Papa" most of the time as well.
If you can endure the first part of the video (I know it's not particularly fun to watch someone else's kid play with an empty container) the way she tries to say her name at the 1:35 point makes me giggle. This is what is going to get me through the time between now and our next trip. I had to go to a doctor's appointment today and I found myself saying it in my head.
All together now, "Di-Di-Da!"

Singing By Myself
Nathan sings and coos and babbles all the time. Of course, as soon as we started filming him, he stops, but you get a glimpse of the happy, content little baby he is.
This is Nathan sitting on Daddy's lap while we're in the hotel room (you can see the American TV show in the background! We enjoy "Dirty Jobs" with Mike Rowe and the Discovery Channel in general.)
He has a little crooked smile toward the end (after Brent blows on him) that just turns me to a pile of goo every time I see it!
I'm also in love with his lips. :)
That's our boy!!
