It is truly wonderful!<BR/> My husband and I (and our two sons) are about to begin the process of adopting a child/children from Ethiopia using the same agency that you used. I have tons of questions, and I was hoping we might be able to correspond a bit via email. My address is strand@borcim.wustl.edu<BR/><BR/>Keep writing- I enjoy reading!<BR/><BR/>StephanieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14252293.post-69397477750027503012007-07-19T10:23:00.000-06:002007-07-19T10:23:00.000-06:00angela the party was a lot of fun! lisa makes the...angela the party was a lot of fun! lisa makes the most amazing jewlery and i need to do a post about her, i've been meaning to for a long time.<BR/><BR/>a great book which i have only started (as my dad started it too while at my house and got so hooked that i sent it home with him!) is "love in the driest season", a memoir by a man who with his wife worked in zimbabwe and adopted a little girl out of an orphanage. it is so gripping and he's an amazing author (writes for the washington post i believe.) i'll probably do a post on it once i finish it.<BR/><BR/>how about you, any book recs???Brianna Heldthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08224838737334231065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14252293.post-73809248504427308852007-07-18T18:00:00.000-06:002007-07-18T18:00:00.000-06:00What a bunch of cuties you have (but we all alread...What a bunch of cuties you have (but we all already knew that)!
