Big fat day

Misgana is feeling better, but still has many times of being quiet.
She has deep thoughts going on. We were able to go to her orphanage
today and she was able to say goodbye to her good friends. This was
an amazing experience. We prayed for all the orphans there with them
that God would find them a family. (Any takers?) :)

We are planning on flying home Saturday night here so we will be home
(allegedly) at around 7:45 pm Sunday night at Grand Rapids airport.

You are welcome to see us, but no pressure because we will not have a
lot of time to chat - but we'd love to see you.

Thanks for praying! We need it.

Also pray for friends here who are adopting. They hit a snag and it
will take them a bit longer. Pray for Garland and Melissa that they
will be able to get home soon. Very difficult.

Love you all. We are loving Ethiopia, but miss you.

Peace

Good to hear the update. Glad Misgana was able to say her "goodbyes" to her friends. This has to be difficult and who knows what emotions are going on in her head and heart.

Make sure you give us a heads-up call as you travel homeward, so we can react and be at the airport on time. We love you and continue to pray that Misgana will sense Jesus being so very close to her, as well has His encouragement during the days ahead.

I have been and will continue to pray for your family and Misgana as she begins her new journey as your daughter. I am sure she does have many thoughts and fears, but she will learn to trust you and love you. Levi and I won't be able to make it to the airport, but we are both eager to meet Misgana in the future when you are all settled. I will pray especially for that first week home.

Wow, thanks so much for the picture of the little miss, love it.
Hope her bug/cold/flu is better, and that by the time you board the plane Saturday, she will be over it.
Has she ever flown before ? So many new things, experiences and "stuff" for her in this week, her mind must be reeling with it all.
The Bohalls are all mustered with prayer support, especially Art who is also focusing about her adapting to her new brothers and sisters -- and them as well.
Praying for continued good "happenings" before you leave.
Much love,
Fla. Dad
