Two more days!

Well, it is Thursday and we leave at 8 a.m. on Saturday morning. Good thing there are 24 hours in a day! We feel like we are using every one of them these days to get ready. We were still getting some papers notarized at lunch today!

Here is a picture of the family on the day we found out that everything had cleared the courts in Ethiopia.


Again, we thank everyone for their support provided in so many ways.

Dear Greg & Leigh - How exciting for you and your family. The girls are all just so precious! I hope we get the chance to see you and meet ALL of them sometime in the near future. We will be thinking of you and praying that all goes well with your trip there and back to get Meti. What an amazing gift you are giving to this little girl. She is just a little angel. May God be with you and bless you!

Tears of joy are rolling down my face...for many reasons. I will pray continuously for you to receive all the blessings, joy, peace, assuredness, and comfort the Lord has in store for you as you follow His plan. This is so exciting...my youngest niece is in my heart and I can't wait until she's in my hands. Until then, with God's strength (and everyone's prayers) I will care for, love, comfort, protect, and build up the hearts of your two precious children here in Atlanta. Enjoy every moment of this journey. Thank you for taking the time to create this site so we can all enjoy the journey with you.....I just love your guts guys. xo j
