Home at last!

We arrived home in Seattle Saturday night after about 30 hours of travel. We are doing great… adjusting well. Thank you for all your prayers and support and encouragement! Please keep praying for strong bonding and good adjustments… especially for Tarike to feel comfortable and love being in our family… and to have a strong spiritual desire and become a fully devoted follower of Christ! We love you! Jim & Jaci and family

Thank you for your prayers!

We just got off the plane in DC after about 16 hours of flying from Ethiopia.
Feels good to be in a familiar setting. 
We have really felt your prayers, and thank you so much!
Tarike has done so well… and we know God is helping us all.
I tried to upload a photo but had trouble on the limited airport internet.
Will wait now till we get home.
Thank you again for your prayers and encouragement on this journey.
Our love, 
Jim for us all
