Bethany and Paul update

I'm sure some of your have been wondering how things in Africa are going... 
Bethany sent me a text message on Saturday and said that she was loving Rome and that they had seen it all. They were getting on a plane in a few hours for Africa. I think she was really proud that she was actually flying all these places. I was definitely proud of her! I also, know she called Leah (her kids are with her this week) and was able to chat with the kids yesterday (they ahdn't left Italy yet and would be getting the boys while we were asleep last night). They planned to call the kids this morning and let the boys talk to the other 3, but I have not heard from Leah and am not sure if that was all able to happen. BUT... I just saw this message on Paul's facebook and had to share. 

We finally picked up the Boys today and it was awesome. Yesak is smaller than I thought and Yohannis doesnt weigh much. Yesak is extremely outgoing and did a song and dance for us at the orphanage that we got on video. He's a ham! Very friendly and loving, and very outgoing. Daddy's boy! Yohannis is an observer, laid back cute as can be and definitely a mommy's boy. Look forward to seeing the other kids Sat.

I really cannot believe they are actually there and all of this is finally happening. I am so excited for them all. Their flight will be in on Saturday evening. Let me know if you'd like to join us at the airport for their arrival. There will be quite a crowd. I'm super excited and so is Cade!
