We bought a beautiful African painting for Eli's bedroom in which the artist printed words throughout the painting. I get choked up every time I read them:
"I remember that moment when your heart called to me. It was then that I began to search for you. We searched. We longingly searched for your face. Then we saw you. We knew you, yes we knew you.
We'd travel those broken roads over again. We climbed each and every mountain. Loved. Chosen. Forever."
3 years and 3 countries later -- I am a mommy of 3! Only God can write this story.

| Our first day meeting Eli! |
 |
| We passed court! Eli is officially our son! |
 |
| So happy!! |
 |
| He loved playing with Mommy's sunglasses! |
 |
Eli and his best friend, Tate! They're from the same village and close in age! Tate's mommy has become a very close friend of mine.

Babe of my heart, right here.
"Our Hope",
Eli Abdikegna |
