Eritrean Sisters

My previous post shows the recent arrival to America of one of my surrogate Sisters and her two children. I also mentioned that sadly three sisters remain in Eritrea. I have posted to my Flickr site a slide show of all eight of my lovely Sisters.

Please meet them.

DIVERSITY

Emotional Reunion
For the past month I have been helping my surrogate family prepare a newly acquired Town Home. This all in a long awaited coming to America of another sister and her two children. Some have not seen her in twelve years and have never seen her two children. I for one have never seen any of them, only said hello on the telephone. They are from Eritrea and have left some saddened hearts but the joy this event has brought those of us here is immeasurable. All the photos of these lovely people are now posted to my Flickr site. ENJOY.
