God's Sovereignty

Our greetings with Olga are the same....she is always happy to see us. First into Tim's arms then into mine. Now into Andrei's. The director of the institution asked us how the adaptation was going. As she also reached out to Olga and Olga went into her arms. We said it is going great! Today they gave us a ball to play with. We went outside and Olga played on the slide. Tim helped her climb up and helped her slide down, so this went on for awhile. Tim and I played with the ball ;). She also played in the sand box. She likes to hit the mound of dirt with a stick so it goes everywhere. She seemed a little quiet today. She still responded to us but its as though she was tired. Maybe, we're playing to hard....yeah, right! We walked around the building and saw this lady with three young disabled children. Two were very energetic one was in a wheelchair. They seem to young to be here, I guess they were visiting from another orphanage. Two of them had Down syndrome. Tim was holding Olga and Olga was just looking at them. She didn't recognize them or else she would have been giggling or saying something. No, she just looked at them. One of them came up to Olga and was rubbing her leg as she said "baby". Olga, was ready to go back inside. We said "ba-ca" bye, she waved and was gone.

While Tim and I waited outside for Andrei. Tim, said he still could not believe that Olga was just across the street from the cathedral. All this time! See Tim found a website called The Best of Ukraine http://www.thebestofukraine.com/. It provides alot of helpful information about Ukraine. Tim would oftened look up Krivoy Rog and view the pictures of the cathedral. So all this time he was looking at that picture not knowing Olga was in the institution across the street. I don't think that was a coincidence. Andrei, told us yesterday that he was all packed and ready to leave for Egypt the week we arrived. We arrived on Tuesday he was leaving Thursday. His mom called him and told him he needed to stay and help. He told us that he will stay with us until we leave Krivoy Rog. He's a good kid. I believe that these things happen for a reason. It gives us a glimpse of God's goodness and assurance that He will never leave us or forsake us. And He is still in control, Amen!!

Lunch today....PolStar.
