Not pretaining to our adoption

The last two weeks I have not been able to blog due to our Toilet and one of our bathrooms leaking through our ceiling.  We were referred by a subcontractor to replace the toilet and the surrounding area of the bathroom.  This we had to do out of pocket which dipped into our funds greatly.  Mean while our kind plumbers decided to not tear our bathroom apart but get paid and leave not to return.  This means we were out the funds for parts and some of the labor paid as a deposit.

Not only did they tear up our bathroom but while leaving took many items from our home.   A police report had been filed and we pray these items are recovered.  Also taken was personal items of my husband wallet, cash, checks, debit cards etc..  Very upsetting to know we can not trust everyone around us..

Good news our Dossier is finishing up translations and will be submitted in Mid October. :O)))

Butterflies

Even old people get butterflies. As our newest little 9 year old points at the ceiling and out comes her first words in English to me. Butterflies Momma, Butterflies... In the dead of winter with temperatures of 20 below I stare at the ceiling.  Not thinking I look up. In the spilt second in time my mind wonders.  Even in an orphanage a child can have humor and imagination.  Maybe being caught off guard or in the moment it makes a person think. On the outside of this old worn out building a few dying bushes.  And from the street it looks like any other old building. The caregivers and other children inside are the only family they had for years. This is the only place our children knew as home. I love spring and soon butterflies will fill the air.  Maybe the Windows will open and a few of these fragile flying angels  will fly inside.  For many of these children seeing a butterflies will be only through a panel of glass. This year marks 2...
