Our son (adopted from the same orphanage) apparently had two friends in the orphanage who also were adopted and the sisters told us one was named Moses (or Moise... it was difficult to know exactly what the name was because of their accent). So I was just wondering if your little guy was him. Anyways, I'm so glad that you posted an update and that he's doing well--he looks like such a happy little guy :)Juanitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00793665584389520527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6494321115981323232.post-16121585244387301642011-10-18T21:59:38.914-07:002011-10-18T21:59:38.914-07:00Wow!
