6 Days Til Travel

Todays big highlight other than really getting some cleaning done is attending our adoption meeting!
It is called "While You Are Waiting" and it started off as a coffee in coffee shops but as our group grows we have had to move it to the church!! How exciting!
Tera is the "Adoption Specialist" at our church...and she is growing our ministry like crazy!
This is another family adopting from our church. They are also adopting from Ethiopia ! I stay way too late...but I enjoy the conversation SO much!

Yesak and Yohannis....mommy is busy asking questions about what to pack in your bag , learning some Amharic and preparing to touch you and hold you for the first time ever! It is un-fathomable to love two little people that I have never touched, never held, never felt kick inside my womb. I do not know what makes you smile, I do not know what makes you cry, I do not know how you like to be held, I do not know how to comfort you, I do not know how to cradle you to sleep, I do not know what size clothes or shoes or diapers you wear, I do not truly even know how to pronounce your names....but know this my boys...I am your MOTHER and I love you as much as any mother can love any child and that is all that matters.
