Ethiopia: The Whole Picture from Paul Hassell on Vimeo.
Watching this video has me PUMPED!!!! I can't wait to see what my daughter's homeland is like. I am so thankful that this was posted on the family blog of my agency (disclaimer note - done by families, not the agency) If I could, I think I'd go today. There have been a TON of referrals lately, but all of them have not affected us. We are currently at number 6 waiting on our baby girl. Hannah Grace now openly talks about Ellie-Joy. She tells us all the time how she's going to hold her & rock her & give her a bottle. She is going to be such a great big sister. Sometimes I still feel like pinching myself because it's just surreal. Thank you Jesus for showing me how much fun a big family can be. I don't think I ever imagined myself with a bunch of kids (actually when I was a teenager I don't think I ever saw myself grown up). But now I know how special a big family truly is. Of course, everything isn't rosey, but what is? We have our fair share of problems. I just see it as we have more people to help solve those problems. I wouldn't change it for the world. Besides, "children are a blessing from the Lord." Who can argue with that?

Glad you enjoyed the video clip! On my personal blog (http://lifeinthecarpoollane.com) I'm finally starting to write about my trip to Ethiopia. Hope you enjoy it too...
I can't wait to virtually enjoy your trip with you and to meet that little princess! I think Hanna Grace will make a great big sister. I enjoyed even the few moments with her Wed. night...I think I could have taken her home with me! What do you need for her for school. I still want to do something for you guys!
Your family is such a blessing to me!! I can not wait to be BFF with Ellie-Joy, too!! I love yall!!
