Good buddies

Ethan's best friend is going to change many people's lives on the other side of the globe. I wish he could do it here because we are going to them all, but God has a better plan.

Ethan Graduated!

Well, Ethan is officially a graduate (of pre-K.)  He is a sweet boy and is falling asleep in this picture.  :)

Masresha Amaru

We have a new family member - Masresha Amaru

Everyone, Masresha....Masresha, everyone....(She said "selam" which is hello in her language, Amharic.)

Masresha currently lives in a garbage dump because her mother is not able to provide for her, and her father has passed away. I met her last month, and Heather will see her in June.

BUT!!! She will be in camp this summer to learn some English, lifeskills, etc. In September, she will go with 100+ of her friends to a boarding school. She will have new clothes, a bed, a shower, school books (girl, you better study or you are grounded,) and a food.
