I have to say..I know Ive said it before..but you are all so sweet and thoughtful!!! I cant say it enough..so I have to say it again!!! The Original second time around is sending us clothes..they are the perfect size for Biruk and Paulos and I just think that is so amazing to Stacy thought of us like that!!!! Stacy..I ahve to thank you publicly because I am just overwhelemed with you ladies on here. I have never been treated so nicely as I have on here. You all have offered me so much support, your Fms and your kind words..I am deeply touched by all of you. Stacy, I said it in an FM , but those clothes will go to great use and they will be greatly, greatly appreciated by myself and Dex as well as two very lucky little boys who are being treated so nicely by so many of you..and we dont even have them yet. I am so blown away by all of your acts of kindness, I have never seen anything like this. I am grateful and feel so lucky to have found these boards. To think that so many nice people exist in one place...man..I got lucky finding you all!!!

Re: How did I get so lucky???
Here is my newest picture of Paulos, it was taken by a parent who was picking up her daughter, I dont have a new one of Biruk, but the director is going over on the 8th and promised to take some for us. She is also delivering our paperwork to the Government, so now its on...hopefully they'll process quickly and Ill be there in May or June!
Thank you Moehick!!!! Paulos is the cutie with the red shirt!! Thats my son!!!! YIPPPPEEEEE

Re: How did I get so lucky???
I am going crazy!!!! It si similar Im sure to you waiting for your dog! When we adopted our cat,we were so excited..this is that same feeling..only maybe more intense and scarier, whereas you know your dog will love you..I am so afriad the boys wont like us or will think we are wierd..My husband and I are kind of loud and what if that scares the boys? I hear Paulos is shy. But I dream all the time about them, the nightmares have started, similar to wedding nightmares..I dreamt that I went there and one dream, I forgot to bring their clothes, another dream I went to Ethiopia and then found out that they were already adopted. I suppose Ill be having these dreams until they are safely with us. I am going crazy. Im trying to keep very, very busy. This is my last full semester at school..AMEN..and I know when this semester is done..it will be soon that I will travel, so that helps. I am going out of my mind with excitment. Im making them lifebooks, so that helps too. UGH..I wish time would fly!

Re: How did I get so lucky???
You truly are an inspiration. Everytime I read a post that you wrote about your boys, etc, I totally get emotional. You and your husband are doing such a great thing- its incredible.
Even though I dont know you, you really are an inspiration. :)

Alicia, as I said, I am just so happy that they will be put to good use and I couldn't think of anyone I'd rather send them to. I think your story has truly touched all of us. I am so happy for you

Re: How did I get so lucky???
I am just beside myself..I never dreamt that so many people could be so wonderful and supportive. When we set out to do this..we had no idea of how people would respond. We didnt even really think it through, we just knew when we saw these boys, they were ours. But never in a a million years did I think that people who I have never met in person would be so caring and giving and supportive. You guys are an inspiration to ME!!! Your kindness is mind boggling. It makes me cry. Thank you!!!
