An IAN traveling family--the dad is a pediatrician, the mom is a nurse--recently came home from a loooooong trip to Ethiopia--check their blog to learn about their extended journey. (They added two babies to their family, so they are now a family of eight kiddos!)
While they were there, Marty and Kendell examined all of the referred children at Sele Enat. Amazing, huh? What a gift!
So we have Little Boy B's most current medical and developmental information. It looks like he is four years old (not five years old). And he is small, wears a size 3T (experience with Amelia tells us he'll catch up!).
He does all the developmental things--hops on one foot, counts, draws, plays ball--that you would expect any little kid to do. And he is healthy. Thank you, God!
The scary part: His caregivers report that he PLAYS HARD. I'm a girl mom! I don't know about this hard-playing stuff!
The sweet part: Kendell reports he will snuggle "till the cows come home."
Awwwww!
We are Dave (aka Dad), Lory (aka Mom), Allison, Abby (aka "The Bigs"), three year-old Amelia and six year-old Bereket (aka "The Littles"). We are figuring out how to be a family of SIX. May God always be glorified! TEAM TASFA is a group of twenty-eight of us who just returned from remote southern Ethiopia, where we were privileged to serve the orphans and widows there. It was the best two weeks of my life!

Isn't it great to hear the little details! He sounds like he's going to be a blast! And a little love bug to boot!
Hi Lory! I'm waiting for the other little boy B. :). We are calling him 'Bear'. I think my B might be almost the same size as yours. lol
Lory, Have been out of touch for a while but want you to know we are SO SO excited for your latest adoption!! Oh, to go back to Ethiopia again ...
