Good and Bad news!!!
We got the boys!!!
They are sending us the contract and this process will officially begin!!!! I got their files last night and learned alittle more about them. They both love soccor and spaghetti, one wants to be a doctor and one wants to be a pilot!!The bad news is..they will NOT find out they are bing adopted until Ethiopia approves us, and that may be two to three months. I wished they could know sooner, the only postive is that when they DO find out, they will only have to wait a very short time until I am there to bring them home. I just wish they knew, one of the boys doesnt remember his mom at all, his father just died of aids and his baby brother is dying now of aids. it is heart breaking. the other little boy's mom just died this past May and his father died when he was very little. The grief they must live with, it kills me. But atleast I know that they will be mine and they will be safe and loved and I will work with them and their grief. I am so happy to know they are MINE>>>YIPPPPPPPEEEEEEEEEE
Their names are Biruk and Paulos, both in the second grade, but one is 7 and one is 8!! They only sent me zerox pictures..but I am hoping that since Im signing a contract, that thwy will send me a real picture so that I can post it!! They are such beautiful little boys!!!!
All of your kindthoughts, prayers and well sishes worked..this wasnt originally supposed to happen until after christmas, possibly mid January..and here we are at mid december...this is amazing! Next step is immigration, and hopefully that will go fast as well!!!
