February 24, 2007 was the day we met our three children in Ethiopia. Due to US Visa complications, we were unable to bring our daughter home at that time. We brought our two sons home first. Two months later when our daughter’s Visa was approved, Russ returned to Ethiopia, to bring her home. In celebration we have created this slideshow.
Postscript: Following the creation of this slideshow, we completed the adoption of another daughter, whom we met and fell in love with on the same day, February 24, 2007 at our daughter’s orphanage. We returned to Ethiopia and brought her home on August 10, 2008.

The 2008 september campaign was a birthday initiative started by charity: water, a non-profit bringing clean, safe drinking water to people in developing nations. We asked everyone born in September to give up presents and ask for donations to build wells instead. More than 800 people joined, and raised $950,000 to build wells in Ethiopia. More than 50,000 people got clean water. charitywater.org

The journey that our family has taken in order to be united with our adopted Ethiopian children; the faithfulness of God to see us through financial obstacles, red tape, unethical practices, and much sorrow; the miracle that God performed when He made two orphans our very own.
