Nap Time!!!!

Day 12

                Today we stayed at the orphanage. We arrived at 2pm and they woke Lincoln from his nap..."yes" I said nap. (As you can tell he just woke up!!)  All the kids take a nap from 2pm until 4pm. The second time we visited  we were in the young boys part of the orphanage which consist of a room for sleeping and a room for play and studies. The boys were called to lunch and they quickly did as they were told. So we waited  in the sleeping room where we were playing UNO.....before very long the boys started coming in one by one.  Some in a hurry and still chewing their food...I don't think they get alot of visitors so when they do it is a big deal.  Soon a caregiver said something and the boys all jump up and start taking off their clothes.  I start thinking.. Oh my ...what is going on! So they nicely folded their clothes and put them on the chair at the end of their beds. They then very routinely pulled back their bed cover, laid down and close their eyes.  Soon after they are sleeping.  Then at 4pm someone wakes them.  I've noticed the days Lincoln is with us during nap time he yawns a lot.  It will be some long days when he first goes to school.  I don't think Bellwood has a nap session in the schedule.
               
               Today we spent playing with Lincoln. He likes to thumb wrestle...I think he won a few rounds. It was a fun day!!! It will really be fun when we can see him in the back ward with his brother and sisters. We are so proud of Jackson, Maddison, and Reagan for opening their hearts and being so receptive and given of  themselves. They have such hugh hearts and they just keep getting bigger!!!!! Amazing how these three children can see serving others and focusing on what in important in life is why we are here.  For this we are so greatful. Also, so many of our family members and friends have been so supportive....I have received well over a hundred emails and facebook posts telling of your love, support, and prayers. It is awesome to know we have so many people praying for us!! So for this we say Thank-You!!!  (and Yes I'm try to fix why you can't post on our blog....Sorry, not sure why)

              I'm closing this post with pictures of where we are living and the view from our balcony. It's not as bad as it looks...it's just the housing in Krivy Rog.   (Lori and Cindy...is this the place you remember?)
