One year today

One year ago we met the boys for the first time. They were pulled out of class and introduced to us as their new parents (can you imagine)! They had only seen photos of us. We took this photo moments later.

About an hour ago we took this one:

They are doing amazingly well and are growing like crazy. Their English is recognizable, but they've still got cute accents. They still love Ethiopian food, but Isayas has added on spaghetti as a favorite. Both are OBSESSED with Star Wars. They could talk to you all day about it; they know names, who has what color of light-saber, who fights who and all about the force. You wouldn't imagine they've only lived in the US for eight months!
