It was one of our top stories last night that emotional scene in Miami more than 60 American families at the airport to pick up the children from Haiti there been waiting to adopt. Today the new families spent their first full day together. NBC's Mark Potter visited with one family today before they headed back home to Colorado.

"Going to the park. First day out."

On their first full day together in the US, the new family of Aaron and Tanya Ramsay and 27-month-old twins Ethan and Brecken are getting to know each other.

"Your daddy, there's daddy."

The boys adopted in Haiti are already bonding with their American parents, who say the four of them together are a perfect fit.

"I feel like they, they know they’re home. I really do."

"Everybody keeps telling us that these boys are made for you and I truly believe that, so they’re just…They’re nonstop and they are active and they’re happier and so, they're made for us."

Thirteen months ago Ethan and Brecken whose Haitian names are Berlaney and Berlancy were dropped off here at the God’s Littlest Angels Orphanage1 near Port-au-Prince. Both were malnourished and their mother said she could no longer care for them.

"She totally was very selfless and just gave the boys up to save their lives, and so we just really always wanna honor her and thank her for what she's given our family."

"Get in."

With financial help from messenger International, the ministry2 for which he works, Aaron helped arrange Haitian relief flights after the earthquake. As Tanya coordinated3 with officials and adopted families in Miami, Aaron arrived there Friday with 81 Haitian orphans4, including his own new sons.

"I think when it hit me the most is when I got up the plane, got to customs and knew that we did it. You know, I started crying I just, actually started weeping."

 

Ethan and Brecken are now being spoiled by their grandparents as Aaron and Tanya try to arrange even more Haitian relief.

“Before the earthquake there is a tremendous need and now after, it's an unimaginable need.”

A need they address personally now in their own new family.
