We met Caleb last night about 4pm. We were heading up the elevator and I just had this feeling everything was going to happen so quickly and it did. We got out of the elevator and I saw him! He ran to us and said Mama and Baba and wanted to show us what he had in his bag. He showed us the photo book that we sent him. He sat mostly in my lap and Tim took a few photos, but we did not get a lot. We just enjoyed our time with him and kept forgetting to take photos. We did what we needed to at the civil affairs office and headed back to the hotel. He did really good to that point. Then Jenny our guide brought us to our room and we talked about some things that needed to be prepared for today. When she needed to leave he got really upset. He cried for and wanted to leave. We took his coat off and he would put it back on. We would take his boots off and he would put them back on. It was heart wrenching. He was confused and sad. He finally fell asleep about 7:30pm and slept until 6am. That was a good nights sleep. Through out the night he woke up a few times and smiled at Tim and I. He awoke at 6 am and he just looked around and we stayed lazy and Skyped with a few family and friends. He was very happy. Today we have done paperwork and stayed at the hotel to bond with him. He has been very happy today. We played hide and seek, he loves the blow dryer. He likes cartoons. He has been tickling Tim in the belly and gets a big kick out of it. We are heading off for our second round of paperwork and I will write more later.
