Here are pictures of Biruk, age 8 and Paulos age 7. Both in Ethiopia and both about to our sons!!! :) We are so excited...words cant even explain how amazed we are that they will be our sons. We already love them so much, its incredible. These pictures arent the greatest and they definately dont do this gorgeous little men justice..their videos are so great because you can hear their voices and see their mannerisms..they are the sweetest children my eyes have ever seen!!! Hopefully, HOPEFUULY May will be when I can bring them home. Swags..thank you so much for the FM on the book..I will go first thing in the morning!!!! Thanks for thinking of me!

Re: Pictures of my boys!!!

Thank you very very much!! I sent their packages today, they should know BY the 15th that they have a family coming to bring them home! I also have a lady who is traveling on the 8th to pick up her little girl and she is going to take some pictures of my boys and check Biruks head, he had a fungus that caused sores on his little scalp..and she is going to get a good idea of his condition, so that I am prepared. Most of all.she is going to give them big hugs for us and tell them we cant wait to have them in our family! YEA!!!!!

KISSES IN THE WIND

I hold you in my heart and touch you in my dreams.
You are here each day with me, at least that's how it seems.

I know you wonder where we are... what's taking us so long.
But remember child, I love you so and God will keep you strong.

Now go outside and feel the breeze and let it touch your skin...
Because tonight, just as always, I blow you kisses in the wind.

May God hold you in His hand until I can be with you.
I promise you, my darling, I'm doing all that I can do.

Very soon, you'll have a family for real, not just pretend.
But for tonight, just as always, I blow you kisses in the wind.

May God wrap you in His arms and hold you very tight.
And let the angels bring the kisses that I send to you each night.

Many congrats on your sons they are beautiful.
