Mike has arrived in Ethiopia and picked Leah up from the orphanage. He only got about 4 hours of sleep on the flight there so he is exhausted. He said Leah is VERY quiet and will not play with any of the toys or coloring books that he brought. I'm sure she is very overwhelmed with the situation. She has had so many changes in her short life. From losing her parents and sister to living with her uncle and then being moved to the orphanage. She probably does not know what to expect or how to deal with it all. The orphanage has been her home for the last couple of years and she probably has not left there that entire time. Please pray that she will warm up to Mike and will adjust to the situation and that we will be able to communicate with her and make her feel loved.
And let the peace that comes from Christ rule in your hearts. For as members of one body you are called to live in peace. And always be thankful.
~ Colossians 3:15
