HERE IS A POST FROM TRACIE! WE GOT TO TALK THRU EMAIL FOR A FEW MINUTES! SHE SOUNDS GREAT! ENJOY READING! LOVE, JULIE!
I wish I could post a picture but the way that Abel's hair just naturally has grown in is just like a mohawk... HE IS PRECIOUS!
We are wiped out today. Here are bullet points of what we've done
Yesterday
-paper work
-Hannah's Hope to meet Abel
-lunch at the hotel
-shopping
-ate dinner at the Gold Club (very interesting food :-)
Today
-Breakfast
-Hannah's Hope to see the kids (got tons of pictures and Julie, I FOUND MAYA'S TICKLE SPOT). Gave our donations to Almaz... it was so fun to go through all of them. I had the most touching moment with a 12 year old girl... one that will be in my heart forever!
-Lunch
-Embassy appointment (WENT WELL - WE ARE APPROVED TO GO BACK TO THE STATES)
-Enat Alam orphanage... WOW! I fell in love with some children there!
-NOW... back at the hotel. We were suppose to go out to Ethiopian dinner but are gonna do it tomorrow night.. too much in one day.
Ted is going to the Mother Teresa house tomorrow. I am going to stay with Abel at the hotel. I also plan on going back to Hannah's Hope... I want to spend at much time there as I can.
MUCH LOVE TO ALL OF YOU.
We are blown away by this BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY. Ted and I so many times have just had to stop to take in the beauty with a tear in our eye. The people are so warm and so GORGEOUS!
Maybe I will blog again tomorrow :-)

Oh thank you Tracie for including us as you meet Abel for the first time!!!
Hoping to see Able's "mohawk" at the airport when you come home. I'll be there if the kids get well before then - right now I have three down with the flu! Whew! Oh, we have been praying and so thankful to see God is faithful to answer the many prayers being lifted on your behalf!
Awesome awesome awesome! I'm so glad it's going well, that the Embassy appointment went without a hitch, that your precious Abel is with his mommy and daddy. Blessings!
So exciting to read about! We have so many pictures from Enat Alem. I wonder if you fell in love with some of the same people. What an extraordinary journey! Can't wait to read more and see more pics. XOXO
