WE HAVE NEWS FROM AFRICA!

Proverbs 25:25
Like cold water to a weary soul
is good news from a distant land.

While we were at church this morning, we FINALLY got word from my sister. They are in Ethiopia safely, have met their boys (in ET, you don't get custody of your children until the day of your Embassy appt), and are in love.

Both boys are covered in scabbed over chicken pox :( , the baby has pink eye and his skin rash continues to be terrible.

Both boys are warming up to them, the baby-Jeremiah-more quickly than Josiah (20 months)...but that is good. It's OK that Josiah is taking a bit more time..he's gone thru quite a bit in his short little life....but he is already smiling and giggling, so that is a very good sign.


If you're interested in reading more, you can check out her blog HERE -I just updated it with all the info we received in the brief email. :)

Thank you all for praying for her. I've included more prayer requests on her blog if you're interested in knowing specifics.

I'll hopefully be updating here with our stuff soon...have pics and hopefully some video to share. :)
