Trip to Manila--U.S. Embassy

Malachi's first flight! It really reminded me of flying to the Philippines when Elijah was just about his age--but this time with a new little guy.

He's excited! Or as Nate would say, his Mama is excited. It was hard leaving Elijah for a day, but much easier to travel with a little infant alone.

This is his little red, white and blue day--we are standing just yards from the "forbidden" sign in front of the U.S. Embassy. "Photography prohibited." Bummer. Well you can see the Filipino flag in this pic, but just imagine the U.S. flag--Malachi's first time to anything close to American. Lots of other babies in there getting papers. Praise God our application was approved!
