Favor, Our Newest Family Member

My first cousin, Missy, has just returned from Ethiopia, where she adopted her second child from that country. Missy, her husband, and her biological daughter most recently arrived in Ethiopia, only to be told by the government to go home without the child. They ended up staying for 3 weeks and fought the fight of their lives. Finally, they were able to get a judge to rule in their favor, and now FAVOR is our newest family member.

Took this picture of Favor last night in a gym at the compound we are staying at.  The floor was blue, but gold must've been in the air!!! :-)T

  3. I like her name as well! I am going to have to find out how that came to be. Certainly not a name we hear in United States very often, if at all. She seems like she is going to be quite the girl!
