A few years have passed since the last entry, but we felt it was time to revive the blog, as we are now on an epic adventure in Surabaya, Indonesia. Yes, crazy, I know, but here's some background: Matthew and Julie, friends of our for many years, have been teaching in international schools for over 15 years. Matthew has been an admin for about the last 5 of those and finally landed at a school that he thought would be a good fit for Michael. So in January 2017, we made the big decision and signed a two-year contract. Clearly we were not worried at all........ Taking the plunge and clearly not worried
Born at 6:57 am on March 6, 2007 after 30 hours of labor. He is healthy and likes to poop but doesn't like getting diaper changes. Hallie is feeling much better and looks wonderful. Life is wonderful and I feel happier than I have ever felt in my life. Tired, but elated.

You've now experienced the miracle of life and I know you are already such wonderful parents to Jonah. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experiences with us through this blog so we can watch Jonah change and grow through your eyes.
All my love to your new little family - Michael, Hallie and Jonah - and peace be with you on your unique and special journey.

Now every moment is such a gem. Yesterday Isabel was cuddling in bed with me and she said, "Mami, soy tu tesoro" (Mommy, I'm your treasure). She was so right.
We are so happy for you and can't wait to hear how Jonah and his parents are changing and growing.
Love, Elena, Ivan, Isabel and Lily
We are so happy for the three of you! Jonah is one lucky little boy to have chosen the two of you to be his parents.
Lots of love from
Ali & Jens
