Home with our Ethiopian Kids!
I don't think I have posted this. We adopted Matea in 2005 from Guatemala. She just turned 3 years old on St. Pats day. BUt at the beginning of the month we came home from ethiopia with 3 siblings..Grace 9, Ella 6 and Jared 5...We are so happy. Everyone is doing very well...just thought some of you old timers might want to know...
