We got our referral!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



We are very happy to announce we have received the referral of our precious baby girl…

Symonne Mekal Blume

Born September 23, 2012
In the Gambella Region of Ethiopia


Symonne (pronounced Sĭ-moan)
The name means “God hears”.
It reflects the truth that God always hears and
 reflects our hearts and how we have felt in this incredible journey…
God has heard.

Mekal (pronounced Mi-kale)
Her given Ethiopian name means “sweet”.


Though we are can hardly contain ourselves from post photos of all of her cuteness, but we are not to e-mail or post her identifying features. You can picture in your mind this very precious girl, healthy looking, big eyes, cute nose, darling lips, 5 ½ month old bundle of sweetness! We are so happy to welcome her!  We will get to travel to meet her in a couple of months and then go back to bring her home this summer.   Thank you for your love, support, and your continued prayers as she is cared for in Ethiopia! 

We are so thankful to the Lord and continue to trust Him in this journey!

With much love & rejoicing,
The Blume’s

*more details to come...just trying to get our huge stack of referral paperwork sent in as fast as we can
