It's a BOY!!!

We have been “matched” with a beautiful baby boy! He has adorable chubby cheeks and a cute little smile. He was born on October 7, 2009 and will be 3 months old on Thursday. His name in Amharic (the language in Ethiopia) means miracle. We hope to hold him in the next 4 to 5 months!

No more “waiting” in our virtual line. Now we are on the lookout for a court date, which will should be given in the next month or so. . . . . We are one GIANT step forward today! And the journey continues with the excitement level bumped up a few notches!

  1. What awesome and wonderful news!! Dale & I join you & your families at the rejoicing in being matched and now have a face with a smile, no less, to look at!! He is precious & I was struck as well with his adorable chubby cheeks!! We pray the court date will happen before any paperwork has to be renewed.
