Myli's New Hiding Place!

 

Just sayin'...if you can't find Myli.....look in the dryer!! This is now her favorite place to play! Oh and you might want to check for anything that comes up missing there too!

Re-Adoption Day!!

 

We are proud to announce that Myliah Nael Frehiwot is now an American Citizen! As you can see, she quickly took over and made a new friend! She sat on the Judge's lap the entire time, played with the gavel, and answered all of the questions she was asked! She pointed out and said each person's name in the room as asked by Judge Rainwater! ADORABLE!! Now all we have left paperwork wise to complete her adoption (other than post placement reports for the next 16 years)is to apply for her COC - Certificate Of Citizenship and a SS#!!

Just in case you are wondering about her name....we decided as a family to use part of Myliah's twin brother's name which is Nathnael as her middle name
(Nael - pronounced Ny-el)and then her 2nd middle name Frehiwot is her Ethiopian name. Nathnael passed away shortly after they were found and brought to the orphanage of malnourishment.

PS - Tommy & Taylor were at M-Fuge Youth Camp, that's why they are not in the pictures!

We are so proud of Taylor! She has an amazing spirit and is the sweetest I know! We love you sweet girl!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Forever Day Celebration!

 

We went to an Ethiopian restaurant called The Nile in Orlando to celebrate the day Myliah became a part of her FOREVER FAMILY! She got to eat some injera which she was not real fond of. It is very sour although it is not near as sour at this place as it is in Ethiopia! We had a great time!
