My trip so far

I am now in Cali, my hometown. The kids are wonderful, I spent about 12 days in another city called Medellin, that´s my husband´s city. I went to take the kids to his family, and for them to meet with my husband´s oldest son Kevin. He is 11 years old, and I brought him along to Cali. I hope he behaves, since he is a difficult child. He had a difficult childhood, was brought up in the ghetto, has very little manners and a difficult temperament. He is lacking lots of love, hugs me and kisses me a lot, but when he´s told not to do something, he gets mad and his ghetto comes out. I truly hope I can give the best of me to this kid. Although he lives with his mom, he´ll be better of along with us in the United States. By the way, my husband came to this wonderful country when his son was 6 months old... so they basically don´t know each other. I hope God gives us strength to bring him over and care for him.
The kids got sick in Medellin, but as soon as we got to Cali, they got a whole lot better. They are all amazed with both of them, that they are really cute. More later, as soon as I can fix my camera I´ll post pictures!!!
