AHHH! Ok, I'm feeling like a loser that I haven't posted anything yet, but my sis didn't have internet here most of the week we were gone (for updates) and we JUST got it back this afternoon. I've got a couple of minutes to post a few pics and hopefully will be back soon to do a day-by-day recap of our amazing trip.
And how we're doing in a nutshell - I'm crazy tired, but even more crazy amazed. God has absolutely blown me away. I wish I had a video camera going all day long - to capture his sweet little songs, his new-found love of cowboy boots (yes, we have a budding Ethiopian cowboy here) :), the way he kisses and hugs Miles out-of-the-blue, and how he greets his "Ababa" daddy when he walks in the door...it's a beautiful thing.
Getting on the plane to Ethiopia...
He's ours!!!
And, Yoni getting on the plane for the first time...little excited, ya think? :)

It is so thrilling to watch them form loving sibling relationships... not to mention all of the firsts and new favorites to discover! I am moved to tears that your son is finally home! May you all be richly blessed as you grow together as a family!

Erin,
he's so sweet! that grin!!! so glad you guys are all together finally!!!
I don't know how I found your blog but I want to thank you for sharing such a joyous time in your family. We have one 6 year old boy and hope to bring home a son or daughter from Ethiopia early (we hope) next year. Perhaps around 3-6 years old. I'll be interested to learn anything you can share about the adjustment.
Many blessings for all of you!
so happy to hear you are home!
looking forward to seeing you all again.
~Sonya & family
