It was sad to put Vadim in taxi back to orphanage last night. He didn't want to leave us. Also sad this morning to get the news that Jake lost his first tooth back home. Although I'm sure the toothfairy has been good to him!!! Someone needs to take a picture of his tooth-missing grin and email it to me ASAP! For the love people. Someone with a camera and an email account get over there and do this for us. If I don't wake up w/ a pic of my boy in my inbox tomorrow, there'll be hell to pay.
We're in good spirits today. It's misting and grey but not very cold.
We found a store that's probably a Ukrainian version of WalMart. It was fun to walk around and look at things. I enjoy my daily hour or two walk w/ my husband, and will miss that when we get home. Found inexpensive yet delicious pizza and peevo (beer) place with wi-fi! Heaven on earth, except in heaven, doubt if they'd laugh at my attempt to speak Russian.
Crossing the busy streets is an adeventure. They just step out and hope that the really fast cars stop. I'm still hesitant, but Todd, the 007 that he is, just steps out into oncoming traffic like everyone else. He's mastered the grim facial expression too, and he fits right in.
Love to everyone. Thanks for all your encouragement.
