Day 21: Just a few more pictures


Just a few more pictures of Ivan! We aren't sure when we will see him again (the decision will be made after court tomorrow) but want to share some more from last week.

Vanya wanted to just hug his dad for several minutes one afternoon. He started playing games where we would have to pick up him and carry him and then he would give us hugs.





On Friday we got to see his group's room (his group is his family here), and he showed us his toys and his bed. It was wonderful to see that it was a clean, pleasant place to live. Vanya poured Mama "chai" and we had a tea party in the little play kitchen. He does like tea!

The first part nearly made me cry....and the second left me wanting to go to caribou :)

The three of us will have to go on a chai date when you get back!

Karin and Dave,
Ivan is a precious little guy! I pray everything will go smoothly. It is so hard to place our hearts in the hands of governments! And yes, it is a blessing to see that the places where our children have lived are clean and well kept.

In Him,
Cindy and Steve
