Were Home..sorry for being slack in posting !

September 3rd, 2008

We finally made it back home !!!!!!!!!!!  we did get stranded in Shanghai once we left Qingdao for home..since we flew out on buddy passes we passed up a few planes before we were able to get out of there…we got a hotel room in Shanghai near the airport & just waited & tried again..i met a couple of people that were also stranded that came back & shared the hotel room..I didnt even get their contact info or email to thank them for staying with Tyler & I until we made it on a flight !! so thank you Rebecca from Salt Lake City & to Dino from New York !! may or paths cross again ..but not in Shanghai !!!!

We  have adjusted back to US time pretty well..but since Tyler never got adjusted to China time zone it wasnt to hard to sleep once we got back home…and sleep we have !!!  Food has been another issue…after going nearly a month without eating much, it has been hard transitioning back into our american food.  Tyler is eating like a horse though since being back home …I guess he is making up for all the lost food he wouldnt eat while in China !!!

Overall I would say the trip has been a success !! I have noticed Tyler’s eye contact with me becoming stronger & him “looking” as if he can see something !!!  He is still practicing his walking too !!!  I think in another month or so we should have some real vision improvement to report !! keep those prayers coming !!!

Tyler unfortunatley wasnt able to go back to his daycare this week, were not sure what happened there…being told they are full now when we know that they arent ??  well it is their loss to not get to be part of Tylers life now !!!  And what goes around comes around….that is all I should say at this point !!!  Life goes on & Tyler will find a much better fit for him in the end !!!

I am back at work & glad to be…glad to be back into our routine !!!!  I will try and keep this updated as to Tylers progression & changes in his life after China !!!  Thanks to everyone that made this trip possible for him & hopefully changing his life forever !!!  I know that God has been on our side & continues to show us that he is with us through all of this…once again I thank all of you for your help !!!  And stayed tune for good things to come !!!

Tami & Tyler
