Hodson's Colombian Adoption Journey

This blog will document our journey in beginning our family through a Parent-Initiated Adoption from ICBF in Colombia. We will mark the stages and key events along the way as well as blog frequently from Colombia after we receive the call of our lives.

Secret post...






Monica is doing the dishes and John is doing the laundry. Gabriela is sleeping and I figured I would do a quick sneak attack blog for everyone.

Basically, today was another wonderful day walking around Bogota with Juan Carlos and Pablo. We had lunch at the Pisarro house and then headed out. Afterwards, we had coffee and snacks with Pablo before meeting up with the rest of the family to have sushi at "Wok". It was a relaxing and wonderful day... we laughed a lot and then I said my goodbyes to everyone as tomorrow I head back to the states. Everyone wants me to stay, but I have to get home to my job and my dog and my house and my family... though I am going to miss my new Bogota family & "chickytina" Gabriela very much!

Anyway, I'll end this with post with two words: BUS ROJO! and here are some more wonderful pics of Gabriela from the last few days for you all to enjoy (didn't have time to upload todays pics but you'll enjoy them, nonetheless). :)

CIAO BOGOTA!
