14 minus 9

Hi Tegegne! Yes, we meet you in 14 days, but we leave Kansas City in 5 days! THIS SATURDAY we will be on the plane to Chicago-Frankfort-landing eventually in Paris to stay with our friends for a week. Then we go from Paris-Frankfort-Ethiopia Jan 15, arriving at 6:30 pm. While in Ethiopia, our dear friend Jessie is going to update our blog. (Thanks Jessie!) I just read a blog of a family that is in Ethiopia right now. They are visiting the countryside and said it is absolutely beautiful. Very hilly as well. People line the streets walking from town to town carrying goods on their back. They went to the top of a mountain where they overlooked the capitol city, Addis Ababa. We cannot wait to see your homeland, meet wonderful Ethiopian people, and take in your culture!

Love you little buddy.

Your Mama
