WORDLESS WEDNESDAY: MERON GRACE DOUGLAS

Here is the latest on the news of our newest grandchild. She is in Ethiopia right now, but will be here by the first of the year. Perfect picture for Wordless Wednesday.
Hi everyone,We are overjoyed to announce that we passed court today and Meron Grace Douglas is officially our daughter! Thank you so much for your prayers and support, we are truly grateful to have such wonderful family and friends. The tentative date for our visa interview is on Christmas Eve. They will let us know more in about a week. Hopefully Meron will be in the arms of her parents for her first Christmas. We have attached a picture of Meron for those of you who have not seen her yet. It's the picture we received with her referral. She was already named Meron when we got her referral. In Ethiopian it means Gift of God. We thought that was perfect. We couldn't wait to share the news! We will keep you updated as soon as we know more. Thanks again for your prayers,Brandt and Michelle
