Hi Ethiopia Boards!
I just finished my homestudy for a Guatemalan adoption, and I am really really excited about adopting a child from a country I know well and have loved for decades.
But I cannot stop thinking about Ethiopia. I am a single woman in my 40's about to become a first time mom. And already I am thinking about pursuing a second child from Ethiopia, before I even have a referral for my first child! So I thought I would just say hello since I find myself lurking here on your forum.

I was over here lurking also. You and I sound like we have a very similar "profile". I'm also single, 41, waiting on I-171 and referral for Guatemala and am planning on Ethiopia for second adoption. We're going to need to keep in touch!! Ruthanne
