| Meet Kindu Rogers! |
August 9-15: Hang out with Kindu every day!
August 14: First family outing - we got to take Kindu out to lunch

| Yes, we are quite smitten <3 |
August 16: We flew home...A.L.L. day and we have been back to life as usual (mostly) ever since.
Now we await our embassy submission - hopefully August 28 or September 4 - then clearing embassy within a few weeks of submission. Our hope is to have Kindu home by the end of October although SOONER would be nice!
Thank you all who have contributed... You are ALL part of the Rogers Family Adoption Story.
We will continue to fund-raise to finish our international fees and purchase our flights back to get Kindu to bring him home. If you feel led, any amount is significant and can be given by using the DONATE button at the top right column. I plan to have a Thirty-One Gifts fundraiser in the next few weeks too - FUN!
Thanks again and blessings to you all!
