Here’s Misha… He is at the mental institution in Romaniv. He has lost a lot of weight since he was moved here in October. He’s become quite frightened of everything and is very scared. He was hungry the whole time we were with him and he pointed at his mouth, pointed out the window at the “canteen”, and searched our bags for food. It was a very emotional day for lots of reasons. But we are trusting God to do what He alone is able to do… There are some paperwork problems, but that’s apparently to be expected. So…there you go. Here’s some more pictures of our visit with him…
George, our facilitator
My beautiful wife. I couldn’t begin to be here without her.
Misha loved looking at the pictures in the photo album. He can say “hannah.”
She is so beautiful.
He kept putting the toys in the backpack and going to the front door. :*(
Ummm…yes. We spilled the big bottle of bubbles on the carpet. 🙂
Misha already calls us Mama and Papa. He has no concept of what that is…but it’s nice to hear the words. 🙂 Our visit with Matthew tonight was very sweet. He remembered us.
When we left, he screamed and cried. It broke our hearts, but it’s good that he’s getting attached to us.
Thanks for the prayers. We have several large barriers to climb, but God IS FAITHFUL! Thanks for your love and support. NANA: Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. We love you. KIDS: We miss you terribly. We look at your pictures often. We can not wait to come home and be with you. We love you will ALL of our hearts. Take care of each other!! BLAKE: Don’t forget that Seth NEEDS hugs. You initiate it and give him real hugs. All our love to you! PS: we’ll post a video of Misha hopefully tomorrow. Today was a FULL day. Tomorrow may be too, but Saturday is coming. 🙂 o/
