    Their instagram shows Theo growing up happy and handsome, and expecting a baby sister! As a Thai-American who is also thinking to adopt, thank you family Metz for not giving up when bureaucracy was tough and took time (unlike that other family who withdraw their adoption as they couldn't post on social media for a year 🫤). How you guys did it was insanely cute - heart stickers everywhere! It just shows how much you just cannot hide your happiness and excitement you have for Theo. He's growing up beautifully because of you.

    I totally agree with the previous comment about the hotel being a resort of sorts. Wow, that is just beautiful. What a way to spend your quarantine. No one room place for you guys. I am so happy for you and it’s been a long time but God is making things come to pass.

  • @chriss.8897

    I have been in the hospital again for the last few days. I have spent so much time praying and waiting for updates. I am so excited for you both. I will keep,praying until you are home (and then after that) with your beautiful son. I saw his picture at the Word of Life Hudson FL concert and he is beautiful. I know you will love being a Mommy and Daddy and I don’t know how you are so calm waiting to hold him. God bless you all.

    Thanks so much for sharing. Have been praying (especially when I wake up during the night - your daytime I guess) and getting more and more excited for you and your beyond blessed son. So thankful you have a great place to stay and that God keeps not only showing up but showing out (quote from my nephew)!

    Wow. Quite the luxury digs you have there. Gorgeous. And you like The Two Towers too. That's so great. I really like how you talk about what you are reading in the Bible and what you are learning from it. Thanks for being real and not putting on airs. Just being yourself is so refreshing. I'm so eager to see what happens with the end of your adoption journey. Please do share. So many of us are waiting for more details. Take care and God bless. Adam from Iron Mountain, Michigan. Married with two daughters. I can't say enough good things about being parents. You will love it! God makes everything beautiful in His time.

    Such a blessing to know you arrived save and are 1/3 of the way through your quarantine system. I pray that your entire special new family with Theo, will be sanctified by God’s Holy Spirit the moment you meet him. I pray that he will easily learn to meld with you and know that God has sent you to be his forevermore parents. May any fears that he might feel quickly dissipate as your gentle spirit calms him the moment your eyes lock and your love pours over him as new parent sees, holds, and recognizes the smell of their child for the very first time. I’m getting so anxious for you to meet Theo and have your family time together. Prayers Always ✝️❤️

    Thailand has a place in my heart as I had an uncle and aunt who were missionaries there from about 1953 to 1973. They were in NE Thailand. Seems like a beautiful hotel to be staying at. I am curious, who arranged the quarantine hotel, Thai government, adoption agency, or ??
    Seeing you hold hands when you prayed brought back sweet memories. My husband and I always did that. God called him home unexpectedly in March 2020. How I miss him. 😪
    God bless and keep you in His care.
    Love from British Columbia Canada. 🇨🇦

    :-) Greetings from Chiang Mai! In November 2019 I surprised my wife with tickets for the Collingsworth Family concert in Scarborough, Ontario. GREAT concert! and my wife won a free Christmas CD! :-) At the intermission I made a point of thanking Michael (behind-the-scenes sound man) for 'sharing' the family with all of us who very much enjoy your music ministry. Not knowing anything of your 'Adoption' journey / story, my wife did 'pick up' a hidden, gentle, but also strong message coming through the song which Courtney sang........."Your ways are higher than mine." Blessings as you are on the verge of entering a new chapter of Metz-Collingsworth family history. 2nd Peter 1:3 สวัสดีครับ ขอพระเจ้าทรงอว้ยพระพร

    Hi Metz family,can't believe it's been 1 year since adopting Theo.🥳🎉😁❤ Since its been a year now since you adopted him,are you going to share his Gotcha Day and first year with you and your family going on tour across the country? I've been dying to see Theo's face for a whole year and you said when you announced your adoption that you could show his face on social media one year after getting him according to the adoption agency. Well its been a year now,time to show the world your precious little boy to all of us who love the Collingsworth Family and have not seen him in person at a concert.

    Your journey has been so inspiring to me. I have felt, for years, that I had incredibly strong faith. However, to watch what both of you are doing - it is inspiring, and I have so many questions. But, I think of how I would be. Ali g that trip. My husband and I would be wearing haz-mat suits and latex gloves, and we would be double-masked and have a face shield. Our haz-mat suits would have signs hanging on them, saying “give us space - our international adoption is in process, and we just be well.” But you two - you were at concerts and then “tried” to stay home as much as possible to lower your risk. You didn’t wear gloves or double mask, and in fact, you pulled your masks down for some of the filming. You had such faith that God would take care of you. I would have that faith, too, but I would not be as relaxed and at ease as you are. This has been thought-provoking for me and amazing to watch. Can’t wait for the next installments!
