New Pics Of the Kids

My friend Jenn Maygren, who I went over to Africa with, just got back from an other short trip to Ghana. She got to see Isaac, Emmanuel, and Rhoda and took a few pictures for me. It is so nice to get some new pictures of them and see their smily faces. They already look older to me, which makes me sad that I am missing more of their lives but I just keep reminding myself of how amazing it will be for our family to spend the rest of our lives with them!









She said they seemed to be doing good and are just so excited to join our family in America. I hope we get to go get the kids soon. I remember how time moves so slow as a child and can't imagine how long these months must seem to children in Africa waiting to come to America to be apart of a family.

When I got to talk to them on the phone a few weeks ago they all just kept asking "Madam Calli, when will you come get us?" I tried to explain that adoption takes some time but we are doing everything we can to get them as fast as possible. I am not sure how much they understood because Isaac just said "Madam...Monday, will you come get us Monday?" Poor boy, I wish I could go get them Monday. It was so great to hear all their sweet little voices and when I was getting off the phone with them Isaac said, "Madam, me du wo pa!" This means I love you so much in Twi, which made my heart melt and of course my tears pour!
