A beautiful morning


Today is a beautiful fall morning in Krivoy Rog. The trees are changing colors from green to orange and yellow, its just beautiful. The weather is very nice too. Tim, Olga and I played outside again today. We try to get her out as much as possible for some fresh air. She also enjoys the playground equipment. I was watching the leaves fall from the trees and the wind blowing them in all directions. I told Tim, it looks like the leaves were jumping off the trees and running away....you just have to have a little imagination.


Olga played on the slide today and actually let go of one of Tim's hands as she went down. She usually hangs on to him as she slides down. Then she called us into the little play house....its little. All you hear is grunting as we enter and exit :). Well she called us in for a meeting. While we sat in there I pulled out the candy, surprise! She just loves candy. We sat there while she enjoyed her chocolate. I tried to clean her mouth but she doesn't like to have her mouth or nose wiped. Come to find out its because she is able to do it on her own. So I just handed her the tissue, she wiped and gave it back to me. She's a big girl!


Andrei, arrived so it was time to go. We walked around the building one more time as we came around the other side Olga recognized Andrei's car. She came up to him and he opened the door for her....she jumped right in. Tim, jumped in next to her then she waved to me to jump in too. That's how she directs us...she just waves "come on". She's a little bossy pants. A very cute one at that. It made me think of our little Emily. These children know exactly what they want and how to get it. I believe Emily will be good for Olga and vice versa. They can learn from one another. As we talked to the translator Nadia and the director Maria yesterday we explained to them that Emily loves to cuddle with her daddy. They sit and watch football together. We told them we have a chair big enough to hold all three of them. That's going to be a sight. Sarah, can't wait to meet her new little sister Olga. She is a blessing!
