when she went home to Ethiopia last year I thought that they may be adopting at that time (the same time as Angelina Jolie lol!) They had talked about adopting an Ethiopian orphan but in the end Russell didn't go on the trip and Werku was gone for about 2 months or ore. I am pretty sure that her mother and father have no idea that she is married to my brother. I know some of her sisters and brothers and cousins know but I don't think her parents do.

It was funny because a few motnhs before she went home she HAD to gain a lot of weight 40 pound sor more. Normally she is tall and very model thin and dresses like she walked off of the pages of a fashion magazine but at home in Ethiopia being very thin is a sign that you are poor and very unsuccesful so she always has to gain weight before she goes home. I think it is pretty funny.

I think they would be great parents but at this time it looks like they just aren't going to have any children and I am not sure why.
