Referral!!!!!!!

REFERRAL DAY!!!!!!

JUNE 8, 2010!!!!! The phone rang at 4:00!!!! "Kristin..." AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

Yes, Tuesday June 8th, 2010 was our 2n referral day! *sigh*

We'd like to announce the referral of Miheret! She's 3 1/2 years old and currently in the capital city of Addis Ababa, Ethiopia! She's absolutely beautiful! Her skin is completely silken and her eyes tell stories, just as Leah and Logan's did years ago. She is tall for 3 1/2, but we often compare children to Leah and Logan and we know that they are wee!!!! She is very healthy!!! No, we cannot share pictures with you, just as with Leah and Logan's adoption, until our court date. This should be in 6 (or so weeks). At this point, she will be our daughter and we can share her beauty with all of you. If you happen to visit with us, we can share her picture with you!!!

Surprise!!!!! Miheret will be joining the Knight Family with a baby brother!!! Yonas is 9 months old and just as healthy as her!!!! He has big brown eyes like his older sister, Leah...and big kissable lips!!!! Both children are in the same orphanage in Addis! Haha...surprise to all of you!!!!!

The next step is to wait for a court date within the capital city of Addis! This SHOULD be within 6-8 weeks...but this is a new procedure for the adoption process of ET adoptions. So, we'll roll with the punches on that one! That trip should be 6-7 days. Then we come home...prepare some more...and return to ET to bring the children home in an additional 4-8 weeks after that. I'm guessing October for an arrival date?! But that's purely a mother's guess!

Thus, we'd like to announce the addition of "Ella Miheret" and Isaac Yonas"!!!!!! Yes...6...a family of 6!
