Oh, I should also mention that we lived in Africa for 2+ years, which is why we chose to adopt from Ethiopia. We felt like we would all benefit from being able to talk about the wonderful things about life there, not from book knowledge, but from first hand experience. That was a really important aspect of this to us. We needed to have some kind of understanding of life where our child was coming from. We speak a local African language, we lived in a mud hut for 2+ years (we were in Peace Corps), and we loved it there. That is the "place" we came into this from.
