24 Days until Court..but whose counting?

Yes-we are counting down the days-it felt so good to get below the 30 day mark!! January 30th is the big court day! Hopefully we will pass on the first try and travel late February! Keep us in your prayers!!

Today is the day that Christmas is celebrated in Ethiopia! Pretty neat-we got to send our kids as well as all of the other kids at Bethel Orphanage a Christmas present!! One of the families in our adoption agency was traveling to Ethiopia on 1/2/09 and she had room to take donations with her and was planning to go to Bethel. On our drive to NY for the holidays, we made a slight detour to Pennsylvania and dropped of 22 pairs of shoes and lots of shirts for her to take to the kids! Thank you Donna-we really appreciate it!! We were hoping to have our kids home for Christmas this year, but this is the next best thing! She was planning to go today to Bethel so we are anxious to hear how her visit was and of course to get new pictures of the kids!! It's amazing how content a picture and little information on your kids can make you (at least for a few days or so)! More later....
