Wow! These videos are awesome! I also loved it when Heidi was kissing him---I got choked up seeing his sweet smile. Can't wait to meet him!

Heidi and Dave,

I cried through your video of meeting your new son. He really is adorable. In our China parenting classes they showed pictures from the first day of meeting to a week later - the later pictures showed that the children had really opened up to the love and attention they were getting for the first time in their lives. I pray that is what you will experience with Zeke - that he will be even more spontaneous with smiles and laughter. We are praying for you.
