Our beautiful porch
Our apartment building,with a little storeToday was not the best day for Ivan, he was not his smiley self all he wanted to do was swing, he wouldn't even smile at us or Irena. After awhile of wondering what has changed we noticed he kept looking over at the slide where we mostly play. See yesterday his mama broke the slide when I was holding on to Ivan....I'm a little heavy I suppose. The slide has a platform made out of wood and my foot went right through it, Paul commented the other day that the wood looked rotten and it probably wouldn't last much longer, well it didn't. We think Ivan remembered that and felt like he would get in trouble or something, He wouldn't even walk by the slide. What a sensitive little man we have, we told someone about the slide they said they would try and fix it tomorrow, I hope so, I want my little man back, I wanted to fix what was bothering him and tell him it was OK, but I couldn't. Pray tomorrow will be a better day!!
Paul took a picture of the outside of our apartment building so you can all see where we have been living for the past two weeks. You'll all be jealous! We get into our building through the back alley, that's where all the doors are for all the apartment building, we climb 4 flights of stairs..We're getting a good workout every day since we go up and down quite a few times in one day. Today we are going to SKYPE our church, that ought to be interesting, my face on the big screen in church..Yuk. Hopefully it will work and we don't get disconnected. It will be nice to see church since we haven't been to church since we left, no churches here ,unless your Muslim or Russian Orthodox.That's all for today, we'll talk to you all again tomorrow.

Hey Paul & Vicki,
It was good to see your nice faces on the big screen in church,to bad we lost the signal so soon. We continue to think about and pray for you. Hoping for a nice Judge that will allow you to bring Ivan home with you right away.

Paul & Vicki,
I like the apartment views, too bad about the slide! Hopefully it is fixed soon for Ivan to see. I am sure your Mallory is looking forward to playing soccer this week!
Enjoy your day!

Hi Paul and Vicki!!! Wow what a home to have for a month. When you get home you will appreciate home in a whole new way! I love the picture of the 2 of you and Ivan.

We'll be seeing the girls this week and I will be chatting with your mom soon too. We are home from camping and now I can help her out a bit. God Bless you all!!!
