Off to Ethiopia

Tomorrow we set off on our journey to Ethiopia, during which time we’ll meet our adopted son, Malkias, for the first time. We’ll be there for three weeks, which we hope will be ample time for him to get used to being with us, and to let go of being cared for by the nannies at the orphanage.

It’s been a long process, and I’m glad it’s coming to fruition!

I’m also looking forward to seeing Ethiopia again. It’s a beautiful country full of kind and intelligent people.

    Yes, he’s a beautiful young man! I’m very happy for you all. Please take as many photographs as you can! It’s always a pleasure to see your pictures, I look forward to them nearly as much as your written entries (which is to say, a lot!).

    Take care, and best wishes,

    Dan
