I do love, love, love me some coffee and the thought of a coffee ritual so entices me. In truth, I never drink a whole cup. I drink a few sips, set it down, lose it, pour another.....<br /><br />I also love the mind picture of you snuggling with your new chocolate-loving daughter. I am praising the Lord to see the desires of two people fulfilled in each other for the glory of the Lord.Mindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15182293568554955242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4724432374556756119.post-63935306502895792182010-05-13T11:36:34.760-07:002010-05-13T11:36:34.760-07:00You commented on one of my posts and I wasn't ...You commented on one of my posts and I wasn't sure how I knew you so, I clicked on your name/link and I was pleasantly surprised! You adopted that sweet, precious girl that had embassy the same time as Tamirat! I so remember you and your husband! I loved reading this post!!! I wish I would have gotten to know you better. <br /><br />I keep asking what I did for the Lord to bless our family with Tamirat, with a trip to Ethiopia, with meeting and befriending the workers at New Flower Guest House, with all my new friends I have bet through CCI and the friends not through CCI who have the most beautiful Ethiopian children! I was blessed in meeting the children at the two orphanages Covenant Church took us to visit. I have been blessed beyond measure! <br /><br />I am so happy to read that you feel the same way!<br /><br />I pray the Lord keeps blessing you all.The Niedermeyershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01082128174916402570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4724432374556756119.post-13803716187501466722010-05-11T05:05:47.524-07:002010-05-11T05:05:47.524-07:00This girl is downright glamorous . . . and always ...This girl is downright glamorous . . . and always looks like she has a little something up her sleeve!

Turns out, God had been speaking to him about working with orphans, using his medical training. Our conversation was "the kick in the butt I needed to really go and do it now!" I was Soooo blessed. ;-) He's got my contact info in case he has any questions about hooking up with a group, as I can put him in touch with several, and I promised to pray for him to really do it. Gotta love God!Happymom4 aka Hope Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13853646859979784516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4724432374556756119.post-20651945636992663702010-05-10T08:13:24.940-07:002010-05-10T08:13:24.940-07:00I love reading about your time in Ethiopia.

Hopefully again, soon!Shonnihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16652243862329017082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4724432374556756119.post-47736695391069641212010-05-10T06:56:10.439-07:002010-05-10T06:56:10.439-07:00We have a very active Ethiopian community near us....We have a very active Ethiopian community near us. One thing the children like to eat when they arrive in the USA (with all the weird foods) is this simple meal:<br />two eggs<br />two tablespoons diced tomatoes with chili peppers (get this canned together and make sure "water" is not one of the main ingredients or it tastes weird)<br />scramble them together with a bit of salt and serve with pita bread for scooping.<br /><br />easypeasy.<br /><br />Also, since Ethiopians detest the smell of our chicken (they have organic ones there), you can always rub skinless chicken pieces generously with a cut lime to get rid of the chicken smell. Or buy organic, free range if your budget allows.<br /><br />Oh, and she will automatically dislike chili. Not sure why, but they all seem to dislike chili for some reason!! LOL! Cajun restaurants were kind-of acceptable.<br /><br />Your daughter is beautiful!<br />Congratulations!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4724432374556756119.post-77245686412290473862010-05-10T06:24:37.865-07:002010-05-10T06:24:37.865-07:00What a neat place to stay, Kimmie, and how wonderf...What a neat place to stay, Kimmie, and how wonderful that they are giving back to the orphan house!
