Stories Tuesday in Addis Ababa: This is the first chance we have had internet access. We have been journaling up a storm but will have to add those once we have returned home. We have found that both electricity and running water cannot be counted on and are absent more often than they are present. But is has not kept us from enjoying our stay and ...
4/10/09- Well we are currently at Chris and Lauren's cozy abode in Manassas for the evening as Lauren is driving us to the airport at 5:45 tomorrow morning. We have checked and double checked all of our luggage and honestly, it looks like we are heading overseas for the next month instead of the next week. At this point in time our biggest worr...
3/30/09- Another great call today! I came home from the doctor today only to open the door and see Sean on the phone with our social worker!

3/24/09- So we did not get a call this week (it was a long-shot, but a small part of me was still hoping). But my heart and my gut is telling me that next week is going to be THE week! Keep your fingers crossed. If we can travel next week Egan will be home by Easter which would be just awesome, if not, we will probably be gone for Easter and ...
3/20/09- We just found out through another family that Egan made the 4 hour trip this week from Awassa to Addis Ababa. He is now staying in a small transitional home with the other children that were referred at the same time he was (which should be 2 infants close to his age and I think 5 older children). I am hoping this means that our consul...

Everyone at my office is "awwing" over him. They are all a sucker for those big eyes. I've heard adorable, beautiful, a "total 'Pie," and eyes full of hope. :) -Susan
