In Addis Ababa

....or alternatively titled,
We're not in Kansas anymore!

I stole this post title from Julie Farrand, who adopted from Rwanda as well, and this was her impression of the transition from Kigali to Addis.

Today we got an email from our agency about the possible government shutdown. If the government does indeed shut down, the US Embassy here in Addis will also be closed, meaning that our precious new blessings from Rwanda will not get their visas to enter the United States until the government opens back up.

This was hard news to hear. It was hard to leave Rwanda and Peter yesterday, and I think we are all just ready to go home.

Internet here is so unpredictable, making it seem like we are cut off from the world.

Please continue to pray for us.
Fun post soon with PICTURES and NAMES!
