    Hi Lisa,
    Thanks so much for giving me the opportunity to make your slideshow... It's such a beautiful journey. I am so thankful that all the waiting is finally over and Emmy is finally home safe in your arms- your family is so complete and beautiful.
    Thank you for all the times of sharing with me in your journey... it was all worth it. I keep reminding myself my time will come too- and you will be saying to me these very words- lol!
    God knew all the hard waits would be worth every moment of holding your little girl in your arms... and the same is for all of us waiting for our children. Thank you for your friendship and encouragement!
    Love ya!

    Ohh Lisa and Bill- she's really home in your arms and with the rest of your family!! I finally saw pictures at J&A's on Fri- little Emmy is completely beautiful. What an amazing gift! You are so blessed to have her join your family. I look forward to meeting her in person on Friday and hearing more about your experience in Ethio!

    Heya Lisa;

    funny, I've met you on-line several times, but I didn't know you had a blog - just stumbled across it today! So nice to see your beautiful adoption video - and great to see you with your babe in arms.

    Oh, your video took me back to last August.....Mesfin was there when we first met our daughter Samrawit......and it was amazing. Your photos brought back wonderful memories of Ethiopia, and your Emmy is a real gem......
    We are now in the process of adopting number 6 and 7 ----older siblings from Samra's same orphanage....
    Cheers!
