When we arrived at the Baby House this morning, Peter's group was at the playground. His friends saw us first, and started calling, "Peter, Peter!" Then out of the crowd Peter came running toward me saying "Mama, Mama!" and gave me a big hug. God is so good. I couldn't believe my ears and eyes.
All Peter's little friends are so excited for him. I still feel bad for little Sasha though. He was so sweet trying to win us over. But when I asked if we could take two, the Ministry of Education said it was not permitted. I hope he'll have a family soon--he's blond, blue eyes, cute, skinny, and very affectionate. I imagine it won't be long. But when he turns 4 in couple of months he'll move to the orphanage for older kids. Must get some sleep now...we're almost adjusted. Thanks for all the love and support!
If you're so inclined, a prayer request we have is for protection thru the rest of the bonding period, and the court appearance that should happen in about two weeks. Many adoptions seem to get caught up on some legality or timing issues just when all seems to be going smoothly. And "a praise," we are now in a fantastic apartment right in the center of town--a totally different experience. It's modern and clean with so much going on right outside. We got to admire the Friendship Day celebrations from our balcony and were told to expect fireworks after dark. So tired though, we might sleep right thru them~
