Six kids will be united with their new families today, Cheryl is escorting them home as we speak. We are anxiously awaiting for word that A&E's friends are safely in the U.S. Maima and Tarry (NJ) Jacob and Mardia (NY) Felicia (MI) Alomiza (NY) Also, one of our other favorites, Ishamel , met his parents for the first time yesterday. Craig and Karen Monson from UT are at the AFAA house now. We are so happy these meetings are finally happening after a big wait. QUOTES FROM ABEGAIL : Last night Scott made chocolate chip cookies. Abegail comes in the kitchen and says, "can I have one?" I said, "Ask Daddy." She says, "But it's an emergency!" I'm sorry we interrupt this programming for a cookie EMERGENCY.
Wow - hard to believe all this can happen in one year. Great choice of song!

This was awesome to watch -- what a year.

I woke up a little bit down this morning about the state of the world, American politics, seemingly insurmountable and unsolvable problems, and then.... I watched the 2007 family video!!! What a great job you did of encapsulating the mega adventure that you have been on this year, and what a wonderful andidote for my slight feeling of depression! And when I heard the first strains of "Tomorrow" from Annie's favorite movie, I knew things were going to be ok, with people like you in our world.
