Recent Phone Call

Yesterday, Ann Marie called my parents from Africa. My mom said she sounded SO HAPPY! They love Geramu and sounds like he loves them. He is a kid that everyone seems to know. Today, (Tuesday) is the going away party for Geramu at the Children's Home. Then Ann Marie and Nick take him home for good. They have to head to the US Embassy for loads of paper work, and documents, before they head home in a couple of days.

It's sounds as if the trip has been very well organized by the adoption agency, and they've been having a fun time. They have met about six other families that are all there to adopt, and have gotten to go on tours around Ethiopia. Only downer to the trip, is that Nick has gotten sick. He's still be doing everything, but doesn't feel well with stomach troubles. This happened to him last time they went to Africa too. So, keep him in your thoughts and prayers. I hope he is able to enjoy the experience as much as Ann Marie seems to be.

On another note, Cullen is doing very well with my parents. Seems that they are all having a fun time. They are on their way up to stay with us for the rest of the week, before heading back to Appleton. We couldn't be more excited! Let the fun begin!

Oooooohh! I'm so excited to read about your time with GG. I'll never forget The Pirate, *sniff* *wipe eyes*.
Looking forward to reading more and hope that Daddy gets better and can enjoy the trip.
