Almost home

Well, it's almost time to head home.  We're ready...10 action packed days is tiring.  Silas is doing great, talking and drooling.  We are almost all packed up except for last minute things.  Please pray that we all stay well for the trip and safe arrival home tomorrow morning.

This morning the guys stayed in and I went back to the Fuelwood Carrier's shop.  It was wonderful...the place was alive today after the holiday.  All of the workers' children were running and playing in the courtyard.  They have beautiful woven scarves and baskets.  A must see for anyone traveling here.

I can't wait to post pictures of our Ethiopian adventure after we're home!  Thanks for your prayers!!

love from ET,
jill, marshall & silas

I'm sorry that we missed the Fuelwood Carrier's shop. It sounds like it was great to see these women working and their children running around. We'll be praying for safe travels home. We can't wait to see your pictures.

With Love,

I stumbled across your blog while googling Gap's Product (Red) Treasu(red) romper. Tears came to my eyes. We will be praying for you. I can't wait to see how life unfolds for you. We will be (hope to be) adopting from Ethopia in the next 2-3 years. God Bless!
