He looked and seemed Happy..... Just still a bit Homesick being Christmas and all....We all cried but it was a joyful cry... so happy to actually see him and he seemed pretty happy to see us as well.... !!

He was struggling a bit on speaking english to us... that is AmAzInG!!!!  Love him sooo Much!!!

But we all feel like this little video time can tie us over for a bit.......  What an amazing experience for us all :-)
