    Hello! We are a Holt family and we JUST received our referral yesterday so we are thankful, thrilled, amazed and I'm realizing that you may be able to see our little girl when you are in Addis/Durame. Would you consider taking photos for us? Our daughter is still in Durame so I don't know if you are even planning the trip down there, but if you are... I might have to be in your debt forever. Let me know your thoughts and thanks!
