This registry will help us keep you better informed. It will also allow us to build and maintain a family directory with essential information. We need your help, please take a few minutes to fill in the information below and encourage other family members to do so. The more we can share information with family members, the greater our family circle of joy becomes. If you have family members who do not have or utilize the internet, obtain their permission to record their information in this registry. You can enter your picture in the "Then and Now" section of our registration form. We would enjoy seeing your pictures and appreciating life's changes. Your time and cooperation in completing this information is greatly appreciated. We believe, as our ancestors did, "Family is Important".

Last September, 2005, Kim and I journeyed to the East African country of Ethiopia. Our destination was an orphanage in the capital city of Addis Ababa. Here we were united with our first children, two little sisters named Lydia (age 6)and Megdelawit "Kia" (age3). Two of God's most perfect little people!
We intend to return to Ethiopia later this year to retrieve their little brother Noah (15mos), living at a different orphanage, so that no family member will be left behind. Unfortunately, their biological parents have since died from the AIDS epidemic which is ravaging Sub-Saharan Africa; luckily the children are healthy.
If all goes according to plan, we hope to formally introduce them to their extended Rowan Family during the 2007 Reunion. Until then.
With love,
The Dawson Family
Richard, Kim, Lydia, Kia, and Noah
