Oh this girl...

I never thought that adopting an older child would bring so much happiness to our lives. This little girl has proven us WRONG!! AND WE ARE THRILLED...

This little girl reminds me so much of our son she is funny, outgoing, smart as a whip, ect... I think my days to come will be filled with laughter between these two. We miss her so much and can't wait for her to be home FOREVER.

She accidently blew bubbles in the eyes of the little guy in the picture so then she decided dad should blow the bubbles and she will pop them before any of the other kids could. A little competitive...she will fit right in.

She insisted she must show me she knows how to color and write her name and take pictures and play games with the other children. OH AND BRAID HAIR!! I got a new hair do everytime I visited her. The tender headed girls in this family better prepare themselves....she did after all braid the dolls hair so much all the hair fell out.

Update

WE NEED 280.00 TO HAVE FEES TO SIGN EYERUS REFERRAL. PLEASE DON'T LET THIS CHILD'S EYES HAVE NO PARENTS TO LOOK AT SHE DESERVES ONLY THE BEST IN LIFE.
SOME MAY SAY 280 THEY SHOULD BE ABLE TO COME UP WITH THAT BUT REMEMBER WE ARE COMING UP WITH THE OTHER HALF PLUS MONEY FOR A THIRD TRIP TO ETHIOPIA TO PICK HER UP.

300 to go...

COME ON PEOPLE 300.00 TO GO NOT BAD MY HUSBAND HAS THE MONEY TO MATCH BUT I HAVE TO GET TO 3000.00 SINCE WE WILL HAVE A THIRD TRIP TO GO PICK HER UP.

WE CAN DO IT!!!

SCRAPBOOK

WE ARE MAKING HER A SCRAPBOOK HERE IS THE FIRST PAGE.

UPDATE...

OUR FIRST UPDATE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH EYERUS WE HAD COURT TODAY FOR OUR BOYS AND MENJA PASSED BUT YOHANNES WAS DELAYED UNTIL MONDAY BUT NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT.

NOW ONTO EYERUS LIKE I SAID YESTERDAY I GOT HER PYSCHOLOGICAL REPORT BACK. I WANTED TO SHARE A FEW THINGS FROM THIS REPORT TO GIVE EVERYONE AN IDEA OF HOW SWEET THIS LITTLE GIRL IS.


THEY ASKED HER WHAT SOME OF HER LIKES AND DISLIKES WERE

HER ANSWER: SHE LIKES RUNNING WITH CHILDREN HOWEVER SHE DOES NOT LIKE FALLING. SHE SAID IT IS PAINFUL AND CAN GIVE HER BRUISES.

SHE WILL FIT RIGHT IN WITH HER MOM I'M VERY AFRAID OF GETTING HURT.
BTW HER FAVORITE COLORS ARE RED,YELLOW,GREEN,AND BLUE THIS WAS ALSO VERY STRANGE BECAUSE MY FAVORITE COLORS ARE RED AND GREEN

THE REPORT SAYS THAT SHE IS VERY EXPRESSIVE WHILE TALKING, SHE EASILY COMMUNICATES (THANK GOODNESS) I CAN'T STAND FOR SOMEONE NOT TO TELL ME WHAT'S WRONG.

SHE EXPLAINED THAT HER NEW PARENTS WILL BUY HER NEW CLOTHES SHOES THAT HAVE THE "KWA KWA" SOUND ( CHILDRENS HEEL SHOES) WE HAVE ALREADY BOUGHT THOSE SHOES FOR HER, WHEN WE READ ABOUT THAT YESTERDAY WE COULDN'T RESIST.

JUST A LITTLE GLIMPSE INTO WHAT OUR LITTLE PRINCESS IS LIKE OF COURSE I DIDN'T GIVE ALL THE DETAILS SINCE LOTS OF THOSE ARE PRIVATE.

WE ARE SO CLOSE TO BRINGING HER HOME PLESE HELP WITH WHATEVER YOU CAN I EVEN HAD SOMEONE DONATE .60 AND WAS THRILLED THAT THEY WERE WILLING TO HELP EVEN IF IT WAS ONLY .60.

Update

I didn't realize that the chipin button has not been working all day. sorry for anyone who has visited and wasn't able to donate. I put 1500.00 just to be safe but here's our total 2450.00 so we are so close to having it. Thanks to everyone who has supported us through this crazy time, we love this little girl so much and will do whatever it takes to get her home.

Eyerus

We got Eyerus psychological test back today and it confirms she is perfect for our family. All we are asking is for everyone who visits to make any kind of donation possible so we can get her home. This sweetheart needs us as much as my heart is needing her right now. We are so close to having our money to do this. Our total is 2200 of 3000. And have until tomorrow.
