God has been merciful to us. As far as we know, the details are coming together for us to attend court on Thursday. This is a huge blessing and brings us closer to being able to all come home together on June 6th. Keep us in your prayers for our court date. We don't know exactly what to expect. We are thankful that Yulia will be with us to translate.
We learned more about our new daughter today. We learned she likes to eat. We have tried giving her milk, juice, crackers and yogurt. We are trying to introduce things to her gradually. She seems to really enjoy each food she tries. It is a joy to see her eat well. She continues to smile and laugh for us. She is also showing us that she can be independent at times as well. We are enjoying our visits with her each day. The weather has been nice enough to go outside. The boys are learning how to play with their new sister and being outdoors gives us all a few more options.
There are many flowers blooming. Someone has done a beautiful job with the flowers around the orphanage. The flowers add a touch of cheerfulness. The care takers really do seem to care about the children. The children are taken on walks around the grounds as often as the weather is warm enough.
We are thankful for the the friends God has given us. There is an American couple here that we have been able to visit with each day. They are adopting a little boy. They have been a blessing to us and it has been fun to walk through this process together with them.
