Last night went well with the girls. Everyone went to bed without a lot problems and the girls did pretty good after Susan laid down with them. However, Mom and Dad did not sleep well so we have been struggling this morning. This morning was rough for Andrew, he woke up not feeling well and couldn't keep anything down for about 4 hours.. He is doing better now but we are going to take it easy today. Travelling around Addis with a sensitive stomach is not recommended given the roads.
William is struggling a bit with the girls, so please pray for him. I think it frustrates him that they don't understand him, but he is trying. He is not being mean to them, rather he is taking it out on Mom&Dad which is fine.
The staff at the guest home is helping translate and helping Susan with the girls hair. That is one of the benefits of staying in these guest homes. The staff's are wonderful and very helpful.
Rahel is helping Susan with Tigist which is awesome. They are calling her Mommy and realy bonding with her which is great, and I don't scare them which is good too.
Overall, the day is going well.
Our prayers are with you all..sound like you need a very restful day..hugs to all!
ReplyDeleteGood day to all of you. Sorry to hear about Andrew & William's difficulties & will say extra prayers for them both. Prayers for all of you are without ceasing.
ReplyDeleteI cried when I saw that the girls are calling Susan Mommy already.I really didn't have a doubt that all would go well knowing how loving you both are as parents.
Happy to hear about the support you are getting from the staff.
Looking forward to another update soon & pics if possible.
Love,
Momma/Nana
I am so excited for you guys. And sorry things are little rocky! Our prayers are with you! Hang in there. You have come this far and will continue to overcome what is ahead of you! It's great that the girls are comfortable with you! Can't wait to see pictures of them.
ReplyDeleteTell Andrew and William we love them and to hang in there too!
Love
Bethy
