I was in this room just 5 weeks ago and it has changed a lot. Every child has its own bed now and it was lovely to see how good they all care for them. I specially remember one girl who is one year old and has a hydrocephalus and she has the most beautiful face I ever saw. Sr. Camilla loves her so much, she kisses her the whole day and they take her out and hug her as often as they can. This was so good to see especially when you hear other storys from countries like China where they have still the dying rooms where the children are not even allowed to be touched any more. I can only say Kidane Meheret is a special place and the nuns are like angels there.

I’m in tears as I am sure one of those babies is mine. We leave in 2 weeks to get him. Thank you for looking after them for us. I hope the babies know how loved they are and not just by those of us waiting to bring them home.

Oh wow…..I’m always moved by your words- but this piece is beyond that……we are starting the process next month to adopt a little girl from Ethiopia and now I want her here now! Thank you for sharing.

I’m printing this one off for our baby’s book. I don’t know if I could have made it through reading this if we weren’t on our way to get him.

This one brough tears to my eyes and goose bumps to my arms. I feel like I was there with you.
We are on a waiting list to start the process.
I love your blog
