(This post is an email forward from Mark and Kelli in Ehtiopia. Please keep them and Ruby in your prayers--especially that little Ruby recovers quickly. Posted by Kelli's Dad)
Hello family......Kelli and I are safe and sound in Addis Ababa. Our flights went extremely well. No problems with anything. Luggage, visas etc....were fine also. We got a good nights sleep and are going to see Ruby in about 1 hour!!
We did get some bad news though- Ruby is in the hospital again. We know very little right now but evidently she has pneumonia. But I do not think it is as bad as its sounds because Milkiyas said 'most kids get that during the rainy season' so we are hopeful that it is just a small cold. They send kids to the hospital all the time here for everything so we hope to know more later. So we are going to the hospital soon and bringing her clothes diapers etc.....
We have internet access here at the hotel but it is limited so we will try and update you guys everyday but do not expect pictures- but we will try.
Their is a another adoptive family staying here from MN and they are big Twins fans.....so that is a real answer to prayer :) Anyway, pray for Ruby's illness to be minor and continued safety for all of us here. We will write you later today or sometime tomorrow- if the internet is working (which is spotty at times). Love you all!
Mark and Kelli

Oh goodness, what a bummer that she's in the hospital again! I pray that she is out soon and that all goes well while you are in ET. Glad to hear from you!
OHHH prayers are coming your way! Come home healthy and safe!
Kelli, Mark, and Ruby,
I don't know if you will be able to read this until you get home, but just know that I am praying for you!
We are so glad you made it safely. We are praying for all of you! Now that you are there, you can give Ruby all the love she needs! Praying she will soon be well!
so sorry to hear Miss Ruby Cube is in the hospital but she will be soooo much better when she feels her Momma's touch! Kelli, I will pray especially for you and she to bond quickly and for her to heal quickly and be able to get her papers to get home! Father, bring on your healing power!
