Going to ETHIOPIA!!!

Well, I am pretty sure I was getting some crazy looks in the freezer section at Walmart this morning as I started screaming and crying when our case worker, M, called and asked if we were ready to go to Ethiopia?!?! 

YES!!! PRAISE GOD!!! 

We have a court date...and it's SOON!!!  So EXCITED!!! We will be with our sweet baby girl right before her 1st birthday! God has given us our July miracle!  We are once again overwhelmed by His goodness!

Thank You, Jesus!!!
