Just a quick post to let you know that the third time was a charm. We finally made it back home to Port au Prince. We apologize to anyone who was on the same flights as us. We take no responsibility for loss of hearing due to uncontrollable screaming from Maia. After our trip back I don't know if we'll ever fly again!
But... we are back, settling in, enjoying showing off Levi and seeing friends and co-workers again.
If you're looking for something to pray about please pray for Maia, the adjustment back is tough on her and she has this new routine of getting up in the middle of the night and not wanting to go back to bed, it started just over a week ago and has made for some long nights for all of us. We've almost exhausted all strategies - nap, no nap, stay up late, tylenol, gravol, bottle, scream it out, cuddling. Needless to say we are getting tired and Maia needs her sleep!
Thanks for the prayers, we'll post some more once we get a little more sleep and a little more settled.

Do you have a cd player and Michael Card's 'Sleep Sound in Jesus" cd? Could she fall asleep listening to that? We had that with our oldest son when he was 21ms old and we moved to a new house. He would stay up way past midnight and kept getting out of bed. He would cry..."Go home!" She may also be the 'perfect' age for nightmares. Lots of co-sleeping...and I'm pretty sure she'll outgrow it. Praying for rest for you and an comforted daughter.
Home sweet home is good! God's blessings to you all as you settle in. May he also give you protection, and lots of encouragement as you keep working for him! We'll be praying for you.
Alice and Allan and kids
