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.

GIVE AND GET

A few useful words in day to day are related to giving and receiving, maybe if you are going to adopt a child in Ethiopia will be useful. It's nice to give some security to children at a time of great change.

ENKA / ENKI                            take (first for boy, then for girl)
Seten / Sechin                              Give me (first for boy, then for girl)
WUSED / WUSEGI                    take it (first for boy, then for girl)
LEWESED?                                Shall I take it?
TEFELEGALEH / TEFELEGIALESH?    You want it? (first for boy, then for girl)
