Jodi and I would like to introduce our sweet little Emi
Adison Deetlefs. We celebrated our 4^th Wedding Anniversary on Friday
night, and 8 hours later we welcomed Emi into our family.  We had to have an emergency C-section,
but mommy and baby were just fine. She was born at 8:20 a.m. on Saturday,
October 31^st and being a typical girl she doesn't really want to
share her weight.  

We want to share with you some photos of her first few days.
We are in awe of this little miracle and can't believe the capacity of our
hearts to love this little girl so deeply. Please pray with us for favor in
quickly getting through the red tape to get her American passport, and for her
Jodi to recover quickly from her surgery.  We look forward to being back in Swaziland soon. Marius has
had to buy new shirts because his chest is so proudly swollen.

Lots of love from the Deetlefs family!

Marius, Jodi, and little Emi
