On this day we truly became a Forever Family in our eyes. Although we had court on the 17th, March 19th was the day we were given the opportunity to check Mawerdi out of the orphanage. This is our "Gotcha Day." It was the day that we truly took her into our care FOREVER, and we will continue to love her FOREVER!
We celebrated of course by eating Ethiopian food, Mawerdi loves her Injera!
“Of course if you like your kids, if you love them from the moment they begin, you yourself begin all over again, in them, with them, and so there is something more to the world again.”
~William Saroyan
The best days of your life when Mawerdi entered with her sweet spirit!
