This morning we received an email from our friends currently in Ethiopia.  This wonderful family is adopting two of our kids’ best friends from the orphanage.  We are so excited to greet them as they return home this weekend!

Hi everyone!! 

The guesthouse that we are staying at has a computer, so I thought I’d take the chance to update you all!! 

We are having an amazing time!!  The kids are WONDERFUL and we’re all have a great time getting to know each other!  We’re actually amazed at the english that they know already!  C* is trying to teach us Amharic, but we’re not the best students!  hahahah! 

Tomorrow is our Embassy date, and Friday we will be traveling about 2 hours to visit the orphanage that they spent the past year at.  They are both looking forward to Saturday, the day they get to go on the airplane!!! 

Thank you for all your prayers & can’t wait to introduce you to the new [family members*]! 

Love,

C*
