Video Chat

Our whole family of 5, plus Grandma, got to chat via webcam on Thursday night our time!!!!! :) :) It was soooo cool!!!! They appeared online right before we were about to put the boys in bed.

Kien said, "Dada" several times.

And here's Daddy and Aria!! :) Then you can see me and Kien down in the bottom corner of the window (and the side of Kevin's head). ;)

WE ACTUALLY SAW ARIA SMILE SEVERAL TIMES!!!!!! :) :) It was Friday morning in Vietnam, and Daddy had yet to see her smile in the previous 24 hours that they had been together. But....we believe it was KEVIN who made her smile!!!! :) :) Kevin and I kept waving, saying hi, and being silly -- and she smiled more than once!!!! :) :) It was sooooo awesome!!!!!!! And she has big dimples!!!!!!!! :) :)

Then suddenly, she waved on her own (when we were no longer waving)!!! :) We sang to her and had lots of fun! It was a very special time. :) :)

Aria does look a little happier on the computer video. Her other photos look like she surely feels--lost, confused and wondering what in the world has happened to her!!! Suddenly everything she knows is gone and she has no idea who Steve is. Once she reaches home and can get to see her family for a little while, she will know that she is ok. She will love the atmosphere, Kevin, Kien, Mommy and of course her ol' standby, Daddy. And Bockba too! And James! And the red, yellow and black snake!!! :)

Oh my goodness! I get tears in my eyes again from the simple knowledge that you are sharing a very special first family moment with me. : ) It was absolutely precious to witness this. Precious!!!
