Our daughter is the one in the pink shirt with the jeans on the very left hand side in the big group picture (Senite). I don't know if you remember her. I don't see any of her sister, Meseret but maybe you remember her. I can't believe it has been a year. I started following your blog right about the time you got Abe. You inspire me to do something with my pictures and make a video (too bad I don't even know where to begin). Thanks again for letting us see this video again. I'll share it with my girls. They will enjoy seeing familiar faces.Jennifer Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02917394241535433984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4459674833570794605.post-88262620154079637022009-08-25T20:52:31.868-05:002009-08-25T20:52:31.868-05:00Emily - This video touches my heart!
