Counting the days





Had another good visit today at orphanage. Our facilitator has been sick for about a week now, so we're taking cabs. ANd doing fine with that except today TWO cabs showed up to pick us up. The drivers weren't happy about that but some young girl who works at orphanage took care of things and straigtened it out. To answer some of your questions - no we do not have internet access in apartment. We've tried but . . . no luck. We're staying warm and it actually felt warmer today - still buttoning up our winter coats, but it didn't take our breath away today. At orphanage we've been playing connect four, watching movies and just hanging out. A is more demonstrative each day. Today we tried on some clothes that Rachel had bought her - she LOVED them. Wanted to leave them on but I explained that on TH or F she would come to our doma and she would wear them then - so she picked out the outfit she wants to wear out of the orphanage. Pretty good communicating - huh? We don't have a cell phone this trip, so Mark had to go find a phone at orphanage - A took him so that was a fun little "outing" for them. We will be SO HAPPY to get her in our apartment.
Went to INdian restaurant tonight with Jennifer and LInda - it was really good and nice change.

Please pray that all goes well these last few days of the 10 days. Here are more pics from the orphanage. Too cute huh?

Wow, you guys are tough. We have been concerned about what would happen if the facilitator got sick.

Hang in there--God will bring you all home safely.
