Chips and Grapes








Kayla's latest culinary creation is potato chips and grapes. She askes for them all the time. In fact, she will put a grape into a potato chip and call it a taco. What a goofball.

We visited Kayla's baby home and gave Kayla's former caregivers a chance to see her. Kayla was very shy around all this attention. She didn't remember anything. I've included a picture of Kayla's caregivers. The woman next to me was the head doctor and the woman to the far right we remembered working with Kayla the very first time we met her. They gave her a Russian story book about baby animals - it was so sweet. The play area seemed newer and more updated than when K lived there. Last May, we made a donation to K's baby home which went to the decoration and new tiling of an isolation ward when the kids get sick. The Head Doctor, Ludmilla, gave us a tour when we were there. It was very bright and cheerful.

Nick is doing well. We went to visit him after visiting K's former baby home. He is really starting to know us. Genrich (our coordinator) tried to get Nick to come over to him, but Nick would run to Dan or I. Kayla is very sweet with him. She is so excited to have him for a brother. He would chase after her and follow her. We can't wait until he is with us:-)

Just an update on the M&C. We made the last box. We are now left to our own devices. Wish us luck.
