August 14--Granadilla to the rescue!

Silas was quite constipated, so our pediatrician prescribed granadilla juice. Brian went to the grocery store and found one. We think it is in the family of a pomegranate. 

To get the juice, you press the seeds through a strainer.

We had no idea how to do this...so we got help. Before we knew it, there were five women telling us what to do and how to solve baby constipation..all in Spanish of course!

Silas did not like drinking the juice-- but it worked!!! A couple hours later and presto, his problem was solved. We had to give Lucia the same juice when we were in Colombia adopting her. We call it "miracle juice".
