Last night, after prayer meeting, we loaded our van and are on our way down to the American Consulate in Los Cabos to pick up Eliseo's passport and born abroad paper. Provided Daniel feels better, we hope to make a quick trip to the states at the end of the month to see our family, friends and home church. Daniel wants to share with them, thank them, and we have a lot of hugs we want to give too :)
Normally, a passport/born abroad paper takes at least 6 weeks or more to process. My grandmother has been sick, and when we applied for Eliseo's paperwork, the consulate officer said he would try to put a rush on it in case I needed to go north for her furneral.
They got the passport there in 2 weeks. This is very amazing since Eliseo technically wasn't even an American citizen yet.
Grandma started to feel better last month...maybe the Lord allowed the passport to be ready early for Daniel.
Please pray for us as we travel (6 hours from our house to Los Cabos). Also pray as a couple of us aren't feeling very well...I think we picked up a flu bug. When we woke up this morning at the hotel, Daniel gathered us all around the bed to read from the Psalms. We then went around and each shared what the Lord has done for us that week. Oh, He is just so good! How we love Him!

Daniel this morning....he feels better each day! Thank you Lord!
Praise God! You can definitely tell he's getting better. . .not as much yellowing in his skin and eyes.

I just lofe seeing your family and your quever (sp?) filling up. Our family doesn't even support our dream of having 4 kids so I can't imagine the support your family must be. What a magnificent blessing from the Lord.
