Back to Albania

Just a quick note to let everyone know that Teresa and Sam (our 16 year old son) are in Tirana, Albania at the Bethany orphanage to pick up Genti.  They made it safetly on Wednesday and slept in on Thursday.  Teresa said she had a wonderful reunion with Genti and he took very quickly to Sam.  I (Garet) was sad when I heard that the other orphans in Albania were asking about "Bobbi Genti" (that was their nickname for me). 
Today the plan was to transfer custody of Genti from the orphanage to Teresa.  That would allow Teresa and Sam to take Genti anywhere.  It would also mean he would stay with Teresa at night, too. 
I haven't had much other contact except to read that Sam is enjoying is time "hanging out" in another culture.  He was writing about a late-night party he could hear off in the distance.  He was enjoying listening to the music.  He's also having fun catching the little lizards!

  1. So glad they arrived safely and praying all continues to go well. "Bobbi" - does that mean Papa/Daddy? :)
