Jarib and I got home to WA state last night. My friends outside of Mobile came and got us in Birmingham for a visit with them. It was so wonderful to spend time with them..More of our visit with them later. Then Wednesday I got the call from lawyer that we had interstate compact approval . Yah!!! Got a plane ticket home for Thursday. I got a big smacking kiss from Heaven when I was mistakenly put in first class all the way from Houston to Seattle. Boy was that nice! Mike picked me up at the airport and I just sobbed to hold my man again. The kids all just adore the baby of course. Jarib very quickly has learned that he likes to be help 24/7 and luckily there are lots of arms waiting their turns to hold him. I am exhausted but oh so happy to be home. I got to see Mulu before she had to leave and Cody comes tomorrow and Roza next week. I think Jake and Holly are coming for visit next weekend. Everyone wants to meet their new baby brother. I am loving have a baby again but will need to start implementing nap time. That means ME having nap time when littles are having their afternoon rest. I need it after being up with Jarib at night. I feel a bit like a zoombie today. Thank you all for your prayers for this sweet boy. Jarib has appointments in Spokane July 6th-7th for VP shunt and also his club feet.
Now keep up the prayers for Assefa and Gezehegn to pass court and get home too.

Welcome to my world. I am an ordinary wife and mom who has been extraordinarily blessed by an amazing husband and house full of beautiful children. My prayer is that you will be somehow blessed by our family's story. It is a tale of God's grace and forgiveness...His loving kindness and patience with us His children as we strive & struggle everyday to bless His name with our lives

So glad you made it back. I know that you were welcome with big arms. Enjoy and get some rest. I will be mailing your package. Picked it up from RMH--just need your address. Hugs to you all.
Oh, I'm so happy you both are home! I know that the rest of the family is so very glad to have you both home. Praying your other two little ones home quickly!! Rest whenever you can! Having a baby is more tiring than we remember, I especially think so as we mature ;o) . Blessings to all.
Julee,
I'm so happy your home with your sweet baby boy. My husband brought Bontu (Lela) home last Saturday and I'm in heaven. She's a dream! I'm keeping you in my prayers and LOVE reading your updates. I often think of your sweet boys in Ethiopia and know your just as anxious to have them home. Still wishing I lived closer to you so we could have coffee, your an amazing Mama and friend.
Richest Blessings,
