On November 7th we boarded a plane to Ethiopia to bring home Adisu. A week after meeting him, he is home with us. The day we met him, Tuesday, he was a very sick little guy with a high fever and some sort of upper respiratory infection. We suspect he was also pretty shell-shocked at all the change going on, so we didn't hear a peep, see a smile or a tear or any response for about 2 1/2 days. Finally on Thursday he perked up and by the time we left Ethiopia we discovered the silly, mischievousness of his personality. He can be quite a chatterbox when he's feeling secure, loves to kick to ball around and is very inquisitive about life.
