Leslie had to unexpectedly leave to return to the States last night due to her nanny quitting while she was here with us. We miss her terribly and hope she had a safe flight home. Heidi has helped tremendously and even though she didn't think she could, she cleaned Sarae's nose and changed a poopy diaper. Yea Heidi!!!
This morning was a free morning so we met up with another family who had been here 2 years before. They had made a friend here then named Millie. Millie took us shopping and Heidi and I were able to check off some gifts on our list. We really felt fortunate having Millie with us as she did all of the bargaining for us.
This afternoon we went to Shaiman Island and had our medical check-ups. Sarae is a whopping 20.7 pounds. Good news - she's completely normal. The only bad news from the exam is that we learned Sarae is a kleptomaniac as she stole the rattle from the doctor. Hope Devereux will give a family discount : )
We are meeting for a group dinner here at the hotel and then it will be an early night for all of us. Hope everyone is doing well. Only 4 more days until we start our trip home.

I feel badly for Leslie, I know she must have hated to leave you, then be concerned for her own children all the way home.
We are all excited to see you and Sarae when you are up for company after your return. It is wonderful to be able to follow your progress and a relief to know that all is going smoothly and that Sarae is as healthy as she appears to be!
All is well here although we miss you. God bless you. Your happiness shows all over in your photographs! Joy - it must be the joy that transforms your image. It is a good look for you!
See you soon.
