Ethiopian adoption dinner

Happy Mother's Day to Joanna....and all mothers too of course.

Last night we drove over to Grand Rapids to meet 8 other couples that are also adopting from Ethiopia through our adoption adency, Adoption Associates. We met at Little Africa, a small Ethiopian restaurant. It was great to talk to people that are walking through the same process we are. One other couple also recently received their referral of a 6 month old boy. So, it was exciting to share some stories of the process so far. A lot of the couples had questions for us since many of them are just starting paperwork and doing their homestudies.

This will be such a remarkable group of people to stay in contact with as we all begin to bring our children home from Ethiopia. It will also be great if all our children can get together sometime in the near future too.
