9 days and counting...Ethiopian adoption
We are waiting on a gift.
It is a precious gift coming straight from our Father in heaven. It will be a gift that we get to open for the first time on Jan. 12th...it is one we will cherish and hold from that day into forever. We all are waiting with eager expectation, our arms our open and our hearts cry out for her to be wrapped in our embrace. She is one of us already, our prayers cover her until our lips can.
It hardly seems possible, though reality is that in 9 days my Knight and I will be boarding a plane heading to Ethiopia to adopt our 8 month old Ethiopian daughter.
Our God is good.

I know most of your kiddos have been 'grafted in' but that second from the last photo? His eyes look just like your Knight's!
Praise God! I am counting with you my friend.
Hi Kimmie!
This is so exciting that the time is almost here for you to bring your new little one home. I'll be praying for you and your family. Happy New Year!

P.S. Your photos do not look like a beginner's to me, they're awesome!
Oh, HE is soooo good! I'm so thrilled and excited for you all and can't wait to hear more about your daughter! Love and blessings to you!
Do you have time for an Ethiopian dinner in Hartford before you travel? It's on Farmington Ave. They open at 5 in the evening for supper however they are also open in the afternoons until 2pm, maybe a field trip for social studies is needed! I hear that there is a good one in New Haven also!
Thanks for your kind words on our site.
