Learning to Liv...: Someone Like You

To Baby LT,

It's a new dawn, it's a new day - click here to read the article that made my heart hopeful when I read it tonight.

"We should be proud of our differences and what we have in common, and we should celebrate them."

Happy Valentines Baby Girl.

Thanks to Jami for this sweet picture.

And THANKS to BFF Mimi for the most wonderful hand made Valentine. We love you Mimi.

And big long prayer to Aunt Julie who travels in the morning to unite with special Sentayehu.

It's a very special love day and any time we feel alone just remember there's always someone like you.

Flag Meaning:

The colored stripes on the Ethiopian flag are significant - the red stripe stands for power, faith and blood; the yellow symbolizes peace, natural wealth and love; and the green represents the land and hope. The colors were also interpreted to have a connection to the Holy Trinity, and the three main provinces of Ethiopia. The star represents unity of the people and the races that make up Ethiopia. The five rays on the outside of the star represent prosperity and the blue disk represents peace.
The three equal horizontal bands of green (top), yellow, and red with a yellow pentagram and single yellow rays emanating from the angles between the points on a light blue disk centered on the three bands; Ethiopia is the oldest independent country in Africa, and the three main colors of her flag were so often adopted by other African countries upon independence that they became known as the pan-African colors.
