November 17th - The Day We Meet the Kids
So it is Monday morning we had coffee at their equivalent to Starbucks. Everyone loved the coffee - I opted for strawberry juice - SO GOOD!
A few of us, myself included were not feeling our best - I think it was just the anxiety, emotions, lack of sleep and the altitude that was getting to us.
After coffee - we had an orientation meeting to help us better understand what to expect on the trip. Then we headed upstairs to lunch, we waited for another couple to arrive that had their flight delayed. The next stop - to meet our children. Later that evening we went to a traditional Ethiopian restaurant and watched traditional Ethiopian dancing.
Here are some pictures.

Hi Justine,
How special to see you together at last. What an amazing answer to prayer. God is so good! I can hardly wait to see these precious children in person.
Hugs and prayers,

Welcome home!!! Gosh my heart just melted o see your kids in your arms. I honestly forgot which kids were yours & when I saw the pics Sam & I were in tears because we fell in love w/them at the home. Especially Sam...he played hard with your lil guy:) I pray you are all doing well & hope to have a PT reunion soon with all our kiddos:) May God bless you in this time of adjustment!
