Today is the Day!!!

Good morning from Ethiopia!  We just had an amazing breakfast of pancakes with Vermont maple syrup and peanut butter- yummy.  We're enjoying a quiet morning before we have a meeting at the Bethany office.  After that, we'll have lunch and then go to the orphanage to pick up our children.  They will have a goodbye party for the kids too.  It will be a bittersweet moment.  Yesterday, we watched as another family picked up their son.  It was profound and painfully simple in many ways.  Yet at the same time, it was a beautiful and incredibly emotional moment as well. 
Pray for us today, as we start our journey of a 'family of three'.  We're thankful we'll be able to buy formula and wheat cereal which he is used to.  I think we're as ready as we can be!  Next update... he'll be in our hands :) 

Keep praying for us and God Bless!!

    What a blessing it is to have a baby boy in your home. You 3 are definitely in God's good graces.

    Keep Up the Good Work,
