The past two days have been AWESOME! We have been enjoying time with Dinknesh - playing, eating, changing diapers, playing, eating, changing diapers, and napping! She is a great sleeper - loves to fall asleep on Mommy or in the car. Last night she slept all night....almost 11 hours! She is also a good eater - you know what that means.....lots of poopy diapers! She says a few words in 2 languages. The first word we heard her say was "Abeba", which means flower. (Gotta love that Keren!) We have also seen a lot of Ethiopian culture! We ate dinner at Fikadu's house with his family...they send greetings to America! Yesterday we traveled 4 hours to a town called Hosaina to meet Dinknesh's birth mother. It was a wonderful and emotional experience. Many things were confirmed with the information she shared....we can tell you more about that later. We went to church this morning - the whole service was in Amharic but we were still able to listen, pray, and worship. Dinknesh did great for her first 2.5 hour church service! The next few days will continue to be very busy! Hope all is well at home.
P.S. Happy Mother's Day to all our family and friends! We love you!
