The Harberts

Hey everyone – we made it to Ethiopia!  Thank you to all of you who have helped us in any way – especially your prayers!   We met Misgana and Sara this morning.  They are beautiful!!  We got to hold them and play with them for several hours.  It was such a blessing.  I will post more later.  Thank you, Lennis

Hello everybody!! This is Keshia now! Well after 16 hours of being on a plane we finally made it! We got to the guest house around 10 last night and managed to get a couple hours of sleep! This morning we had breakfast, then went to the main office building for Children’s Home and had a meeting that kinda gave us the bare minimum of what we needed to know before we went over to the care center.  Around 10 this morning we got to meet little Misgana and Sara!  They are the most adorable babies in the entire world and probably the most well-behaved babies as well.  Misgana just loves to look around and take everything in..he also is a little more active than Sara and likes to kick his legs.  Sara is more of a cuddler and loves to smile!  Lisa–Mom says to make an appointment for Misgana with Jenny for a side trim–he’s got some long curls goin on on the sides It was the most beautiful thing today they both started to make noise and they were so happy–it was amazing!  Thats all I have for now–I’m sure I’ll have something to say later –Keshia

The twins are adorable.  Sara loves to smile and Misgana loves to stare.  I got to burp Sara and she spit on my shoulder – oh well!  They are so precious.     B-dawg – Jurnea and I say hi.  You are going to love kissing Misgana and Sara.  They are very kissable – actually they like to lick!! HaHaHa   Jurnea loves and misses you.    Later   Britta

Today was an amazing day.  We have waited a long time for today.  Our traveling group is great.  It was fun to see how each of the children were matched perfectly with each set of parents.  Of course the cutiest ones were matched with the best looking family!!  I’ll let you guess who I’m talking about.   Tomorrow we will get to do some shopping, so I better make sure my list is ready.  Clark the twins already have a plan for your gift!
