Sorry this is so late, but we have been home since Thursday night August 14. After 13 days in Dallas we received the call that all the paperwork had cleared and that we could go home. It was sweet music to our ears! Peter traveled very well and we made it home in just over 5.5 hours. He is sleeping and eating well and seems comfortable at our house. We are so thankful to Minh and Jenny Le who showed their love to us in action by housing us for more than one and a half weeks.
I think what surprises me most about Peter is the absolute joy Lisa and I feel when we are with him. I was thinking about that today and I'm not sure I've ever felt joy that way before. If I have it has been so long ago I can't recall when or where it was. Even so, it feels as if something has truly come alive in my soul. I know that sounds cheesy, but it is very true. I catch myself thanking the Lord for him very frequently. I pray that I will never take Peter for granted or waste any of the days that God has given him to us. Please pray that with us. The other thing I have really enjoyed is being able to say "my family". I sometimes laugh out loud over the joy I feel during silly little moments as described above.---Nathan

Hi Tumlison Family, Elizabeth let us know that you received a blessing in your home. Me and Chris and the kids are so excited for you two. Our family has daily been praying that this day would come for you all. Peter is absolutely beautiful. Our Peter said "They named him after me." I know your Peter is going to be such a huge blessing to your family as our Peter is to ours Congratulations to you both.
I'm sooo glad you have that joy!!! I think what you all have been through makes me appreciate my girls even more. I can completely understand that joy and sometimes tell my daughters, "NO me cabe el amor!" Blessings to you all!
Dear Nate, Lisa & Peter: I hope you remember us, Fred & Diane Perez from Albuquerque. We sure do remember you wonderful people. Last night at a Fellowship, Christine Mondragon told us the wonderful news about Peter. We were elated and wanted to tell you how much love we are feeling for you guys. What a true blessing. Enjoy each memory and Praise Our Lord for it all. We are still attending Calvary. We love our Church Family and our Pastor, Skip. Keep in touch, we would love to hear how Peter is doing. All our Love and Blessings, Diane & Fred Perez
Yay! We are so happy you are home! Praise the Lord for His faithfulness. Can't wait for more pictures. :)

Well, what do you know? I woke up this morning wondering how things were going. Well, sounds like they are going just fine. I'm glad you all were finally able to bring Peter home. Wow! God bless you both. Two very deserving people or should I say parents. Peter is a blessing to you. But you are truly a blessing to him. Again, may God bless and continue to keep you and your family in his safe and loving arms. Sidney...
