WHO ARE WE

We are Selam and Andiy. After Natnael passed away we wanted to continue his task of teaching children about their country of origin and helping families to find their stories.
This blog is to teach the children that go abroad something about their birth country and to give to the adoptive parents a way to search the biological family of their child.

Is important what you tell your children about themselves.

GEBREHANA

Akeka Gash Gebrehana is a famous character of the stories that are explained in Ethiopia. He is a man about, we could say, fifty years old. He was a smart person and he was very able to speak and to tell the things with irony. The next time I will check about him and I will explain you more, today let me tell you a little story.

One day Akeka Gash Gebrehana was invited to a wedding. At the entrance there was someone that was checking that all the people that enter in the celebration place were wearing nice clothes. When Akeka Gash Gebrehana entered, that person stopped him and told him that he can not enter with the clothes he was wearing and told him to change it.  Akeka Gash Gebrehana went back home and changed his clothes. After that he was able to enter in the wedding place.

There was a lot of different food there and he started to put the food on his clothes. Someone asked him “Akeka Gash Gebrehana, what are you doing?” and he answered: “Is not me that was invited to the wedding but my clothes!”

I hope you enjoy it!
