I was so excited to get news this morning from my friend who is in Ethiopia picking up her daughter. Here is what she posted:
Nuguisse-Monica, I fell in love with him! We were so thrilled to be able to give him the gifts from you! We got it all on video. He liked the picture that Faith drew-Sister explained to him who it was from. Then we looked at the photo book and the book with voices. He really liked it. I gave him some hugs and kisses. Then we put the book away and he started to cry...really cry. Sister took him on her lap and he just wanted the book back out!!! It melted my heart, he really liked it and she went through it with him again listening to your voices. He also liked the picture of your dog. He was a little heavier than I thought he would be.
So he knows that we are his family! There have been lots of tears shed today as we celebrate one more milestone on our journey to bring our son home. As soon as I get the video I will post it for all of you to see!
