March 9th

This afternoon, we met another family who came to Ethiopia a little early. Jeremy went out for dinner with them (again to the Indian restaurant) while I rested. Tonight all the other families arrive and I am excited to meet them. We have had contact via email, but we are looking forward to meeting in person and watching them meet their own children and becoming families.
We tried to give Marie a bath today and we found out that she has lungs and she knows how to use them. I am going to have to find out what they do to bathe the kids at the foster home because sticking her in a tub of water obviously wasn't it! She screamed so loud, I had pity on her and took her out and just gave her a sponge bath. Luckily, she calms down right away when we pick her up so the worst thing that happened was that she got my shirt all wet.

Seemed like a good idea at the time. :)
