Family Values

For those of you who are wondering, Carrie and I are working on our family. Before you get too weirded out, you should know that we have, after a lot of prayer, decided to adopt a child from Ethopia.

We are just in the beginning stages (read-"filling out a lot of paperwork"), but wanted to give you some information about our decision.

This is the organization that we will be working with: Adoption Advocates International

Here's a NY Times article about the orphanage that AAI works with, the Layla House: What will become of Africa's AIDS orphans?

This is a really awesome slideshow about Ethiopia from another organization: Adopting from Ethopia

Here's a recent KCAL CBS news story on Ethiopian adoption: Out of Africa (you may need to select the video link) Of course, it is "sensational journalism" at its finest.

Please keep us in your prayers in the coming months...
