What would you like me to bring you from Africa?

This post isn't related to our adoption process; but our family adoption process. In case you haven't seen our two children recently or they didn't make clear how excited they are about our new baby, here's a funny story for you.

My good friend, Becky, is going on a three week mission trip to Rwanda and leaves in about a week. We spent the day together at the zoo recently and Ocean pointed out Africa on a map in the African Savanna exhibit. He announced that our baby is in Ethiopia which is in Africa. (He's quite smart). Becky showed him Rwanda, where she is going and ask him if he would like her to bring back a present for him from Africa. He jumped up and down and said "Yes! Yes!" She ask him what he thought he would like for her to bring back for him and he (still jumping up and down) answered "My baby!"
