It's a boy!


Hello everyone! For now our son bears the name of our lawyer, Alassane, but though we may keep that as a middle name (lovely, I think) he will have another christaian name which we do not yet know for sure. (Suggestions welcome!!) He is only three months old which means, if all goes smoothly, we should get him at five months which is brilliant. From next week we will be able to ring up the orphanage to see how he's getting on on a regular basis. What else can I say? The news is exciting but has also put us into a bit of a spin, as we will almost certainly have to leave for Mali shortly after coming back from Bali. So TONS to do whilst a mixture of strong emotions run havoc with concentration!

Julian so wishes he could share the news with his mum.....
