Today (Nov 10) is Justin's birthday. Obviously, the birthday of your child holds a special meaning. Over the course of the last three days, I have been reminded of how exciting a birthday truly is. His excitement reminds me of the excitement we felt in anticipation of his birth, and, I think the excitement that God feels as his children enter into relationship with HIM. Justin seems to think that we will forget that today is his birthday. I base this on the simple fact that he has reminded us no less than 5 times/day since Sunday.

Awesome pictures and enjoyed your play by play of your departure from home, flight, entry, and first several hours. Let me know if you find a good way to upload video...I'm trying several through Picasa but they are taking forever (huge files and slow upload speed) - I found a better way to do the pics on picasa to post to the blog. After you load your pics on Picasa into a new album (folder) you can put a star by each picture you want to upload later - you can caption each picture in Picasa - click upload to web album (make sure you have selected the whole folder) and there will be an option to upload only pictures that have a star - once they upload to your Picasa web album there is a blogger link - if you do it correctly you will see a single picture in your blog and if you click it will open to your picasa web album where you can do a slide show and see the captions - much easier than uploading one at a time via blogger with the 5 at a time limit...let us know when you are on Skype too OK?
