Video

Here is something I've been working on this past month. It is a 12 minute video that attempts to capture some of the more emotional parts of our second trip. Enjoy!

Thank you. It was wonderful to hear your anticipation, see your first moments with Zac and to relive our first moments with him. Your video captures an absolutely beautiful memory of our grandson coming home. Love, Nannie

What an amazing, AMAZING video. I needed several kleenexes, but savored every minute. Thanks for sharing this with all of us - wow.
One of my favorite shots was when you were playing with the building blocks together, the speed was fast, and Zac was getting kisses every other second. I could just tell it was impossible NOT to kiss him to pieces!
I loved it, and am so happy he's home & a part of his God given family now.
Much love to all,
Lisa & family

Thank you so much for sharing your special coming home moments! Makes me want to get out and watch our videos of our own homecoming with our daughter from China!

This is one of the most beautiful, precious remembrances I have ever seen. It made me cry, but it will be a forever memory for Zac to have. He is in a home of love and faith and he will always be able to see the impact he has already had on our lives. I am sincerely blessed to have such amazing grandbabies!

What a wonderful video - we have just started this process and wonder if we have the strength for the long wait - but your video showed that its not just about us - there is a little girl out there waiting for us - thanks you and congrats to your family. Now I have to go to the store and buy tissues. Trayce - San Antonio

Precious. I think the sweetest moment was when big sis was making sure her signs were just right to welcome home her new brother.

Thanks so much for sharing. It gives me hope that we will be able to make a video similar to yours when we get to bring our girls home (the wait will be close to 9 months from referral to court trip).

So glad you are home and happy as a family of 5!

What a wonderful video!!! I honestly put off watching it for a few days because I was afraid it would make me cry...quite the opposite - it made me cheer!!! YAY! Zac is HOME!!!! (and I LOVE the footage of your daughter jumping up and down with anticipation when she sees the plane - sweet)
