Magic Wings With the Steiger Family

By -



Today we got together with the Steiger Family from New Hampshire. They adopted from Ethiopia. They have a little girl (Jordan) who is 10 months old. What a nice family. We started out at the Magic Wings butterfly conseratory in Deerfield MA. and then came back to our house for a cookout. Between us we had 8 kids from 10 months to 15 years. We had a great time and look forward to getting together with them again. Thank you Steiger Family for a nice day.

With Love,

They live in traditional huts in a  vlllage with no running water or electricity. We knew Tamenech had grandparents and at least one sibling. Yonas reported after a visit that Tamenech's grandfather had passed, along with one brother. Her grandmother was still around, as well as a sister (who had just gotten married in an arranged marriage).  Daniel's mother had moved to Beirut shortly after he was born, whic...

I am apologizing to Terra, I am running in the house crying, shaking, and my phone is about to die. I find another phone calm down and listen to all the information. I called my husband on the cell phone to tell him (still crying), he thinks that som...
