The three of us just got back from a 5 day adventure with D's brother. We traveled to Boise via plane and spent 3 full days vacationing there. In terms of attachment/adoption stuff, I would deem the trip a success. We were not exactly sure what Kenson would think of getting on an airplane again, only a few months after coming home from Haiti. Nor were we sure what we would think about several nights in a hotel. Our guess was that as long as we were there, he wouldn't care. But we weren't positive. However, we were totally right. And in terms of attachment, I see that as a huge success. He wasn't fearful of us taking him back to Haiti on an airplane, of a new situation meaning new losses. He had a great time and thoroughly wore himself out. He fought sleep at every turn; he was so afraid he was going to miss something good.
Pictures to follow.
Oh how fun! I'm glad it went well and that you were able to hang out with D's brother:) Have a great week!
