A Day In The Life of Quarantine | Thailand Adoption | Metz Family | Journey to Theo Part 2

[@mpdg11]

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.

[@Sarah_Elizabeth_Mitchell]

Are there any updates? I'm praying all is well!

[@loripeters8187]

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]

Its so encouraging to see you guys being open and unashamed to talk about and share what God has been doing in your lives. I really want to catch you guys at another concert. Come back to Michigan soon! 😊

[@winniem1989]

he's so lucky to have yall as parents... blessings to yall

[@cindydurr9218]

Reminds me of my husband & I packing our station wagon & driving 3 hours to see our son for the first time. That was 20 years ago. Enjoy Theo!

[@tinaprice8413]

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)!

[@Jo-ys5le]

I keep checking every day to see a picture of the little one.....I can't wait!

[@jaiwantinur7032]

Me too

[@Odieboggs]

Courtney, I love scrabble too. Glad that you have a comfortable hotel for quarantine. Praying for you. I understand quarantine. I am recovering from Covid in frigid snowy Ohio.

[@findingvikki7469]

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.

I'm wondering the same thing. How are things going, Courtney? We'd love to see your sweet Theo and hear your thoughts on parenthood :) Hope you guys are doing great!

[@alissaboer574]

It's so fun to watch a little bit of the journey to Theo through these videos

[@antonihanlon]

[@RetrosGamingMusic]

Just now got to see this. It was awesome, and yes, I was interested in what was going on. It just seemed to stop all of a sudden when it was getting g good

[@orlenecharles6590]

Thank you for bringing us on your journey. We enjoy it so much!!!

[@jenniferwatson1944]

Loved today’s video! Thank you for sharing with us. My favorite things about your room are the view and the snack drawer!! I think I would be visiting that multiple times a day especially in quarantine.

[@wilmaknottenbelt1825]

I also love Scrabble and puzzles. Thank you for sharing your wonderful journey with us. It is so special.

[@candacewalker9982]

It's nice to see you all being able to get outside! Can't wait to meet your Sweet Theo!

[@crystalhopper6395]

Blessed by your vids, and so glad you have been blessed with good weather now that you can go outside!!!

[@maddieandelismom]

Absolutely loved watching this!!! When I think of other countries, I don’t think of them as so ‘modern’ I guess. I would have never dreamed Bangkok to be such a huge city! I love seeing how they operate!

[@AdamBlumer]

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.

[@terriwaldridge807]

Stumbled on your first adoption video. I am an adoptee and my son is also adopted. I am anxiously watching and SO excited for you. Praying for your son. Safe travels and a smooth transition into “family” mode. God is so amazing.

[@crystalhopper6395]

You guys are gonna make me cryyyy!!!! So patient an tolerant, KNOWING it's SO WORTH IT!!!

[@rebeccasha1211]

Thank you for this update. Continuing to pray for you all.

[@richardkoker8749]

it's so nice to see how your days went by... early morning sunlight and then see how the clouds were lit up as your supper arrived

[@emanuela7485]

I'm so excited for you❤. God bless you ❤🥰

[@carolynlindgren8007]

God bless you! . I am enjoying your journey! Anxious to see you united with Theo!

[@JustAWestCoastGal]

Michael and Courtney, I cannot wait to "meet" your son... virtually LoL Praying for ya'll without ceasing... For all the intricacies you'll be experiencing and working through being new parents to a young boy. May the Lord bless you abundantly with more of Him. With love in Him, Sarita (in B.C. Canada).

[@Spongbob6875]

This was so neat to see!!!! Thank you for this!!!!!

[@Chewy725]

Aw thanks for another update!! Glad u got outside, bit claustrophobic in all the time!! Massive hotel suite! I’ve never stayed in anything like that! I thought it would just be a bedroom. Great view too 😄 time is marching on!! 👶👍

[@rachelwhitehead6977]

[@sharonmcdonald4427]

Courtney, I love Scrabble! I don't often get to play cause my husband often is the victor . Congratulations on the adoption! I wanted to tell you that my daughter is a missionary in Thailand about 8 hours north of Bangkok in Mae Sot( Tiffany and Teerapat Phaisarnpiwats----- yes she married a Thai man). Tiffany teaches English to the Thai ppl and she has learned to speak Thai

When will we learn of Theo's arrival? It is killing me waiting! I know you aren't allowed to show his little face, but I want to know you are all together and safe. God bless!

[@AC-it7ct]

I watched part 1 and 2 of your vids. Very disappointing, I was expecting to see Theo.

[@redonmyhead]

@@AC-it7ct they said in a previous video they won’t be able to show him until a year after adoption

[@roselay4978]

You can see updates on their Instagram 😊 he's so adorable

[@mimio839]

Any idea of when Part 3 will be out?? I can’t wait to see it!!

[@tepukjidat7802]

Looks like you will create a small heaven in your family 👪😉 God bless your family

[@michellelindsay5727]

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 ✝️❤️

[@cathy3546]

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. 🇨🇦

[@madisonreagan3111]

So happy for y'all!!❤️

[@chack4845]

He's a lucky kid. Please keep updating. Lots of love ❤

[@okanval7166]

When is part 3 coming?

[@monicam4738]

Ooo do you guys play take two with your scrabble tiles? God bless you on your adoption journey!

[@brittanyparker1894]

Will y’all be coming back to KZbin? Love you music and would love to know how Theo is doing😊

[@cindyschuman4814]

Is the rest of your adoption blogged? I am not finding it? So wonderful!

[@rosiestahl8213]

[@inaoosthuizen8197]

[@luanngordon8639]

You have been outside about as much as we in Mississippi have been. Send me Satled Carmel Latte. Seriously, God bless and keep you safe!

[@johnw2026]

I'll take a regular black coffee. No sugar or creamer please. From Waffle House.

[@b.g.crawford6566]

:-) 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

[@jjholcomb101]

I’m so happy for y’all❤️

[@evaparker7142]

Excited for you.

[@carolyngregory9354]

God bless you guys I’m loving these journey and I so excited for the big day (Theo’s Day). Im from Brazil and I love Christ um your lives 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@julievanderleest]

Yay for snack drawers! Funny even my car has one of those. You never know if you are going to be stranded on the side of the road either.🤪 Or in my case stuck in the in-n-out drive through for over an hour with a hungry little boy in the back seat.🤓

[@haleyphipps0417]

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.

[@rexfanai9469]

I'm so excited for you 😎

[@БэлаК-й4ф]

Hello! We're going to do that too.. Please tell us about your experience. This is very important to us. Thanks a lot!
