I am so excited for you, you guys are so awesome. How are you going to be able to do it? Someone in my ward just heard that they are getting a boy from Ethiopia. I need to find out the city and orphanage your working with.

WOW Cherish! What a blessing and challenge!! I know that the Lord sends us our children in many different ways. I love how life works that way!!

We too have been thinking about adoption lately; haven't received a definite answer yet. Can't wait to hear more about your journey!!

Kelly had mentioned this at the EM 2nd Ward reunion, but for some reason I thought it was a few years away! How exciting for your family. The Lord always blesses us exponentially!
