Yes, another AGCI video.....

Meet the Boyce family. They are an AGCI family who brought home a beautiful girl from Ethiopia on New Year's Day 2010. Their blog is at: http://www.thebfamilyblog.com/ This is the same home where we will someday meet our little girl. The people at the home are the ones that will tenderly care for her while we wait for all of the legal processes to take place. We are thankful for such a wonderful place with loving people.

Congratulations Boyces! What a beautiful family!
