Felice Dougherty on life in Ethiopia
April 5, 2021
A young couple flies to Lesotho to meet the little boy they’ve adopted, but all the clothes they’ve brought will have to wait until he grows into them because as it turns out, he’s only 18 months old. Just a year or two later, it’s the Democratic Republic of Congo that awaits when they make the trip to meet their daughter. This time around, they’re expecting a 5-year-old and are met by an 8-year-old.
Live music is such a thing here. (Felice, 13:14)
