Just thinking about how the boys have adjusted so much, (and grown) since they came, only a little over nine months ago. Samuel was pretty smooth right from the start, with only minor emotional issues, he is doing so great. He still seems to look out for fairness at all times, he is one who would notice a minor difference in food amounts, or anything really. Although some kids are just that way, I think his may be from life not being fair to him from the start. He is a very sweet and sensitive kid. He loves Jesus, and loves to praise Him! He has a very loving heart!
Alemu has made the biggest change since coming here. He had some anger issues, and a hard time with self control, when angry. He also did quite a bit of complaining and could be very stubborn, refusing to do what he was told, no matter how small of a request it was, at times. He is now very sweet, usually the first to do something when asked. He rarely has a temper and controls himself well. He loves God and openly talks of his thankfulness, and love for Him!! He says he wants to be a pastor when he grows up, because he wants to tell others about God....WOW!! It's amazing what God can do!! The other day he was crying when he saw a picture of Jesus hanging on the cross. He has such a good heart! God is SO awesome!!!
ah julie that is just so awesome! god does such amazing work...he is good all the time! glad your family is doing so well!
