HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
The year 2005 has ended in Ethiopia and it is now 2006. September 11th marks the beginning of the new year, or the Enkutatash, in ET. 2005 was a very special year because my son was born (12/26/12-US calendar = 4/17/05 ET calendar). We also met and brought him home in that year!
It is unfortunate that ET New Year falls on the anniversary of one of the worst days in US history.
