Well, we went to the Cathay Pacific office today and confirmed our flight changes. We plan on leaving Hanoi on Friday night and arriving in Louisville on Saturday morning! We can't wait to get home. Vietnam is great and we've enjoyed our time, but it will be much easier to deal with two little babies in our own home versus a hotel room. We've had the boys now for 1 week and we praise God for all of the changes and growth we've already seen in James and William. Here are some of the positive changes we've experienced so far:
- James is no longer severely constipated.
- James is drinking formula now and loving it. For the first 4 or 5 days all he wanted was rice cereal, which probably contributed to his condition!
- James smiles, laughs and makes eye contact much more frequently now.
- James is now sitting up on his own for long periods of time. A week ago he could not sit up on his own at all! He seems to be getting stronger every day.
- William has grown very attached to his Mommy!
- William no longer wakes up scared and sad, but happy and smiley.
- William is content to sit and play by himself for awhile.
- William is eating well.
- William often smiles unprovoked.
- Both the boys seem very relaxed and happy now!

We have just found this blog and have loved catching up with all that has been happening since you left. The boys are beautiful, how wonderful that you have already since such encouraging changes. Adoption is such a wonderful thing. We will continue to pray for you all as you travel home.
With much love and prayers

It is almost unbelievable (apart from God's grace) to read of the changes in these boys in just a few days. He does indeed do "abundantly above all that we ask and think." Can't wait to see you back home, and we'll be praying for all of the details of the trip.
Much love, the Wares
We can't wait to meet them! Come home quickly!!
I just went through and read every post and cried and cried. I cannot begin to tell you how happy I am for you all! This is just precious!
We miss you and can't wait until you're back. CAN'T wait to see the boys! Tell Caitlyn hi -- we've been praying for you all.
God is so good! I'm overwhelmed!
Guess what! You're leaving there TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!! I've been a bit giddy for the last 48 hours.
Hooray!!! :)
