Update on "A"

I was surprised to get an e-mail this morning from a family that just came home from Ethiopia. What a great surprise!

"Your little guy is so cute!!!! He is absolutely adorable! I watched him playing outside and he crawls mostly but he does "cruise" holding on to things and he did let go and stand on his own briefly but doesn't take steps on his own. He seems to be quite attached to his special mother. What a sweetie. We will be praying for your court date."

We still don't get any updated photos while we wait, and the traveling families can't take any for us either. But it is so nice to hear that someone else saw A in the flesh, he really does exist! and that he's just as darling in person as in his pictures.

Thanks Charlene for taking the time to check up on A for me!

It has to be a little reassuring to know that a "real life" person could give you a update on your son. I can't wait for February!
