Update...

Hello all - Sorry about the video of Shepherd. I'm not sure why it didn't work...will try again...

Dad and Stirling are home! They got in to D.C. yesterday evening. Mr. Warmka picked them up and they stayed the night at the Warmka's house. They came back to MD at about noon. The rest of the Warmkas (Mrs. Warmka and their four girls) left around 2p, after we looked at the pictures from the trip. Now, Dad and Stirling are very tired, glad to be home, but missing Mihret at the same time. Mom, Mihret, Mrs. Perrin, and Sam will start flying home tomorrow and will get back here in the U.S. Sunday evening.

Since blogger hasn't been working in Ethiopia, I'm sure Mom will update when she returns...once she's had a good night sleep. :)

God bless you all for your prayers...thank you also to those who have spent the week and a half with us kiddos here at home, and also thanks to those who brought us meals. We have been SO blessed.

"Then the King will say to those on his right, 'Come, you who are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.' Then the righteous will answer him, saying, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? And when did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you? And when did we see you sick or in prison and visit you?' And the King will answer them, 'Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.' " ~Matthew 25:34-40

To the One who cannot be unfaithful...
