Able's Gotcha Day

Yesterday last year (does that make sence) Able Ancelet was placed into the arms of Tracie and Ted. Knowing that Trace was in Ethiopia a year ago picking up Able and holding Maya for the first time makes me soooo miss the experience, yet i am FULL OF JOY that my little girl is home forever.

Here are some of the first pics we saw of Able...
what a sweet face! This was one of his referral pics.

Look at him now!

The craziest thing about this picture is this is EXACTLY what Maya is doing! The other day I look at her and she is walking down the hall pacing talking on the phone! (in Maya talk)
we are so thankful for you Abel Tesfaye!!!

This was one of the most amazing experiences of my life. The day Ted and Trace came home with Abel.


one day our kids are going to appreciate that they were in the same bedroom in Ethiopia for a couple of months before their parents came to pick them up and bring them to the USA where they live 15 minutes away from each other! amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! we love you Ancelets.
PS
this day last year we got our travel call!!!!
