Woo-hoo! What a way to end a week. Now you can enjoy the anticipation! Congrats!“There is a great deal of difference in believing something still, and believing it again.”
― W.H. Auden
"God made the angels to show His splendour - as He made animals for innocence and plants for their simplicity. But men and women He made to serve Him wittily, in the tangle of their minds."

Ethiopia is home to H.I.M. Haile Selassie, Jah Rastafari. Might I suggest a nickname for him in Amharic?
Ayzoh "Take heart" or "Be of good cheer""Wuap's "problem" is that he is smart & principled & committed to a moral course of action. His actions are supposed to reflect his ethical code.
The rest of us rarely bother to think about our actions." --Solon

Mrs. PAC and I are very happy for you and ldc, but honestly, we're happier still for a little boy in Ethiopia. Under different circumstances, he might be facing a life of extreme hardship and the absence of loving parents, and suddenly he finds himself about to enter into one of the truly great families on the planet. That, my friends, is one lucky kid.

If this works out as you hope it will, HFN, I will happily put myself up for adoption if you decide you want to do it again."Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance and the gospel of envy; its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery." - Winston Churchill
