Grandpa Wilson

Today, once again I had the conversation with the girls regarding what baby sister's name should be. Abigail responded first with "Adey" (which is the name of our great friend's daughter whom they recently adopted from Ethiopia). After explaining that we should probably chose a different name, she responded with "Grandpa Wilson". Without missing a beat Emma responded, "We can do THAT!" It was cute. Sorry Dad, the name Grandpa Wilson is for sure not on the list of possible names!

Yesterday we celebrated our 9 month anniversary of us being officially called to adopt, and we completed all our paperwork and have been officially waiting for our referral for just over 3 months. We still don't have any news to share. The Ethiopian courts have reopened after closing for their rainy season, but the referrals are still pretty slow, so we haven't noticed any movement in our placing on "the list".

Will keep you posted.
