Ethiopia talk

There has been a lot of chatter about Ethiopia and our baby lately....

Most of that chatter is coming from Garyn.

Over the past week these are a few of the ways Garyn has included Ethiopia and the baby in conversation...

- Garyn: PapPa, it's night time here, and it's morning in ethiopia

-Garyn: "Mom, why did God make it morning there and night time here? Why is it different.?"

-Garyn: While at Christmas mass, Garyn was playing with my necklace ( I wear a necklace saying "expecting from Ethiopia), talking to the baby. He said, "hello, baby."

-Garyn: Today he told Gigi to talk to the "baby/necklace" like he does....he showed her how he does it....but it has changed to "hello little guy." And this time, he kissed it.

-Garyn: playing cars with his daddy, he told Ryan they were taking a trip to Ethiopia.

- Garyn and Gianna: Tonight at Christmas at the Zoo, they both added ribbon's to the blessing tree. When the lady asked what their blessing was...Garyn replied, " Baby Ethiopia." Gigi said "Baby 'Opia."

It is amazing how fast they have embraced the idea of a new sibling. I believe Gigi has an idea....but Garyn has a true understanding. Tonight before he went to sleep, he told me that he couldn't wait to meet the baby so he could really talk to him.

It feels my heart with joy....I am so excited for 2011~
