Just another WordPress.com weblog. Home 9 days. Together 16 days. In love. February 2, 2010. 8212; ethiopiaboundexpats @ 10:41 am. We are home and Vera Mariam is an angel. Seriously. She sleeps–a lot, when she’s supposed to–she eats, she smiles, she laughs, she seems to know we’re hers forever and ever and we. are. in. love. Right now I hear the little munchkin giggling to herself in her crib–that’s how she wakes up! Is this a dream? February 2, 2010 at 11:08 am. Oh…I want to see pictures! You are commen...

Why Ethiopia? | Ethiopiaboundexpats's Blog
https://ethiopiaboundexpats.wordpress.com/why-ethiopia
Just another WordPress.com weblog. December 12, 2009. Here are some of the reasons we chose Ethiopia:. 4 million children are orphaned in Ethiopia, nearly 1 million by AIDS. 1 in 5 children dies before the age of 2. There are 3 doctors for every 100,000 people in Ethiopia. Half of Ethiopia’s children under the age of 5 are malnourished. Only 18% of children reach 5th grade. Fewer than 1 in 4 Ethiopians have access to clean drinking water. The average life expectancy in Ethiopia is just 46 years.

Just another WordPress.com weblog. 1 Day and we’re off to Africa… January 15, 2010. 8212; ethiopiaboundexpats @ 3:44 pm. I am finished with school until March 22nd. That is strange! I guess it hasn’t hit me yet. I came home early to pack. So far I’m still sorting, though. There is so much stuff! We have received some very generous donations. Tonight is seriously our last night at home without a baby…besides Stringer Bell. I hope we’re ready! January 15, 2010 at 9:33 pm. Where are you flying through?

Just another WordPress.com weblog. April 2, 2010. 8212; ethiopiaboundexpats @ 2:46 pm. I have not been posting on here because 1. it rarely works and 2. it takes way too long to upload pics. But, I sort of miss the blogging, so I’ll try again. Vera turned 9 months this week! Dislikes: having her diaper changed, going to sleep by herself, having her face cleaned/wiped, being still! I am now a working mama and like it! That is a wonderful feeling. Vera is not crawling but is still mobile. She rolls and...

Just another WordPress.com weblog. New words and new Ayi. February 12, 2010. 8212; ethiopiaboundexpats @ 10:04 am. I was inspired to update today after reading a fellow blogger comment on how the blog is a special way to document the life of her child. Even though I cannot post pictures, I can still tell stories. I posted today on our agency’s loop about her not napping and yet what is she doing right now? Napping in the morning! She has a great belly laugh and we’re starting to see more of her per...
