Still Waiting...

We had a good day yesterday (Sunday). Met the kids and about 20+ additional orphanage kids at the bus stop to go to church in the morning. Natasha stayed with us during the service instead of going with the youth. We learned last week that she didn't like the "craziness" of the youth service. Pasha did go with the youth and the rest of the orphanage kids did as well.

The service seemed extra long...probably because we didn't have an interpreter and it actually did go a bit over 2 hours! But, we both understand a few words (for example, we knew he was talking about Paul, which is "Pavil" in Russian...and Michele was sure she heard something about "by the blood of Christ"....)

Afterward....(Michele rip's computer out of Bruce's hands!)
Bruce is an absolute Bolg-Hog! I never get to say stuff. He says I type too slowly...which is true.
I would relay information differently. He is all about ALL the facts, I like a little more flavor and mystery as to what is really happening. Later when you and I speak in person we could have a real conversation about the events that have taken place. That is the way humans should communicate anyway ! Unlike Kip, I don't love technology.

Anyway..church was long.
We now wait for the call about separation papers for the girls. Today will help us decide if we stay now and finish things up or if we make plans for both of us to leave and come back when Jana is 18 on the 24th. ( she gives us smiles now when we see her at the orphanage).

I'm sure I have left a bunch of stuff out.....ON PURPOSE. Let's have coffee when we get back, or even talk on the phone.

Didn't my entry wet your appetite?

Bruce is taking the computer back.............

Nope...nothing else to say. Michele summed it up nicely. Oh, OK...one more factual tidbit. On the way home from church we saw a bunch of kids spray painting on a wall on our street. When Oksana came to the Bible House, she said it was "paint festival" or something like that. We all walked down to where they were painting and looked at their work. Pasha took some photos and when we got back to the Bible House did some of his own "artwork" on the art pad. There, that wasn't so bad, was it?

Later,

Bruce & Michele
