The countdown continues and came with great news.

My friend, Rebekah, who I mentioned here just called to tell me that she too will be in Ethiopia around the end of June! We (or at least “I”) had been hoping we’d meet again in Ethiopia (which is quite interesting since she actually only lives 3 hours from me) but it looked like it wasn’t going to be possible because she’s going to be in the two tripper group. The two tripper group, for those not in the adoption world, means she will travel once for her court-that’s the end of June trip-and once again for her embassy date to bring her daughter home.

But we’ll be there at the same time and I’m very hopeful we’ll get to meet there again.

8 days. The end.
