In 2007 I received the phone call that would change my life forever.  "Are you ready to meet your son?  His name is Eyasu Bendeshe and he is 11 months old."  This picture is from the Horizon House in Addis Ababa Ethiopia the very minute we met.  Love at first sight is an understatement.  We have returned to Ethiopia several times to reunite Bendeshe with his loving Ethiopian family.  We have shared our journey with our family and friends who have extended their generosity and encouragement to create a foundation where together, we can all help a village in a very personal way.  In return, we have already found that it is actually our lives that have been transformed.
