Today we made our last visit to the orphanage. The next trip there will be on Monday to PICK LILIA UP! We are tired of the visits and are ready to bring her back to the hotel. Tommorow we will not see her because it is Sunday, and I guess she will be in fasting and prayer all day. We can't wait. We made a trip to a babystore today (for supplies, not babies) and got food and wipes and all that junk. I can't believe we are going to have to change diapers again, yuck. Tommorow we will shop for a hat and I am going to look for a drinking glass that is bigger than these hotel cups. I mean, when I'm thirsty I don't want 15 shots of water I want something I can chug.
Today, all 4 American couples met in the 3rd floor lobby to eat pizza and visit. Two couples will be leaving Monday, which will leave us and another couple. After dinner, we went out to the Peter the Great Square and were eaten by mosquitos (mostly Andi). We stopped by a little whole-in-the-wall store in an alley behind the hotel. They have the best prices on water, snickers, and coca-cola. It's sad to think we won't be able to pass on any of these great finds to another couple (since no one else will arrive before we leave). Now, Andi does laundry in the bathroom tub, after that we will watch a movie and head to bed.
We miss you all, especially our boy, and hope to be home soon.
Each day draws us closer to a dream that started many years ago.
Thanks for your posts. They are fun to read, and we love hearing about your lives in the States.
