Dolly for sister



Naomi was happy to give sister's doll a hug before we ship her off to TX. Then she will travel with a family to Ethiopia. We are SO BLESSED by the families that God has brought into our lives through this journey. We thought it would be fun to see a pic of sister with the same doll so we can compare size! :)

One week down waiting for a court date. They have been taking a horribly long time. We are asking God for a miracle to redeem some time that has been lost on this journey. Our little one has waited far long enough for her family! How grateful we are for the Gladney staff in Ethiopia and the way they care for the children. Yet we ache to hold her ourselves.

Thanks for your sweet comment! It is sweet blog friends like you who make this wait tolerable! Isn't it great that we have this community?! We will be praying that your wait is MUCH shorter than ours! :)
