perfect!

i am so happy to find a computer that could get a connection!! i have sooo much to write but i am beyond exhaustion...my mind cannot form thoughts :)

tomorrow i pray that after court, i can do two things: buy a phone that works and post a long blog entry. amy -- my sister should have called with a number for emergency, and here is a second one -- 011-251-923-215-965 pin 1904. it is so hard to not call and check in (of course, if you recall in china i wrote that it was easier for me to not call...and now that i can't call, i want to. what's with that?) i miss you ben, thomas, abi, and phoebe soooo much!!!

but here is what i know you want to hear! our new kids ARE PERFECT!!!!! they are the sweetest, cutest ever!!!! i am completely serious. i cannot believe it. o ye of little faith. i am in awe of how precious they are. tomorrow more, Lord willing!!!

and the meeting today with the birth mom was PERFECT!!!!! she walked me all around the orphange and we held hands. they did a traditional ethiopian coffee ceremony and we just next to each other hugging and drinking coffee ... does it get any better! she was so proud of us, i was completely humbled. she kept showing people the photo album we gave her. she literally loved them enough to give them a hope and a future. at the end, there were no tears. she told the director she was just so very very happy. can you even imagine?

gotta go to bed -- up early (again!!! ahhh!!!!) for court.

lyd, missing our texts. hoping i remember how to use my phone.

amy, please let me know via a comment that everyone is good.
