adoption blog

There is so much more to say about the past 5 days, but one of the main highlights was meeting some incredible, like-minded people. We met Brian and Heather Wednesday night and by Thursday mid-day knew of their passion for Ethiopian people as well as their baby news! Brian and Heather are traveling to Ethiopia in 3 weeks to meet their little baby boy, Elias! Isn't that such a beautiful boy name? Elias was born this past summer. They will bring him home to San Diego but have plans to move to Ethiopia for 2 years this summer. I love this story! I love the fact that Autumn and Brian are adopting and their heart's desire is to live for a time in Ethiopia among their son's culture and people!

We are so blessed to have met you, Brian and Autumn! We will be praying for you in these next couple of weeks and are really looking forward to meeting Elias in July when we hope to see you at SIMCo!

Thanks for sharing this. I also went to their blog too. How awesome and exciting that they're adopting.
