We are home!



Here Jacob and I are picking up Tulem.


Here is the first night home playing with his two oldest brothers. Luke is lifting him off Colin who was his pony.


Everyone played in the front yard and had a great time with their new brother. If you look closely you can see the beaming smiles on both girls' faces.



Sometime I will write about our wonderful trip. But right now I am just so thankful to have Tulem home. All nine of us are in love with him.  He sleeps through the night, eats well, is fun to play with, is affectionate, and is generally easy-going.  He is adorable and we are so glad he is part of our family!

Embassy Appointment!

We have an appointment on September 20 with the US Embassy in Ethiopia to get Tulem's visa! Praise the Lord! Jacob (12) and I are flying out tomorrow.
I am so excited and can't wait to see Tulem. The last few weeks have been stressful not knowing when I would be going. We passed court July 11 and were submitted to the Embassy Aug 10.

I am thankful that two other precious YWAM families will be there at the same time.
