Our New Brother

Introducing Doug's new brother: Kelvin Leon Lewis! After a long 5 years, we are so excited he is an official member of the Lewis family. That makes one wonderful Mozambician addition to each of our families! He arrived in Boise, Idaho this afternoon to a large Smoot Family welcoming committee. He will be on "tour" the next week through Salt Lake, Provo, St. George, and returning to his new home in Arizona on Friday.


Pictures from our trip to Mozambique February 2007 with Kelvin (10) and my little sister Lindy- Lou (8).

I'm so glad that it finally went through! Why can't it be easier? There are so many people that would be willing to adopt from Moz and it's so hard. Maybe someday. But hooray that he's now with the Lewis family! Congrats!
