  20. Okay, when we talked earlier i didn't think about you finally being able to post his photo let alone this awesome video. Michael just showed it to me and I love it. Your journey there and meeting him are beautiful. That footage will forever be treasured. I stroked Tegegne's head as we watched and I pictured you doing the same when Arthur is Tegegne's age!

    Love you!
