When they came back, we took more family pics and gave them gummy bears, which they loved. But we're pretty sure Anita has a cavity b/c her face quenches up whenever she eats on the sides of her mouth. Adam put Tropical Punch Powder in their water and they thought that was the neatest thing! Huge smiles, so excited. Their water turned blue and they were fascinated.As we were taking our last family pictures, P walked up. Anita instantly knew what was happening and she clung to me. Wouldn't let me out of her sight. I just teared up over and over and over again. Maxwell wasn't sure what was happening until the end and he just looked at Adam and said "Daddy, I go with you." Anita just kept repeating "Mommy, I go with you. I go with you Mommy." I said "I know you do sweetheart and I want you to go with me too." Since I couldn't say yes, Anita tried another approach and said "Mommy, I want to go to Grandma's in America." I smiled and just lost it at this point. If she only knew how many people want to meet her and want her to be with me on the plane. I couldn't tell her enough that I loved her and I couldn't take her tears away. I wanted to take her tears away. P asked her if she was ready and she just started balling and wanted me to hold her. With tears streaming down my face and her face, Daddy told her to trust him just like she did in the pool and she nodded. It was awful, so awful. Adam and I agreed that this was the hardest part of the whole trip, to see two children, who we love so much, to be so broken and there is nothing we can do. Pray for us, pray for them ... we ask for fast and smooth sailing from this point forward!
