Sweet girls!


These are the sweetest girls, Vyala, Natasha and Lena. Vyala is 11, and Natasha is 11. Vyala walks us out every day waiting for a hug, which is only given rarely it seems with others. Natasha does everything everyone tells her to do and never has anything to say unless it is kind. Many of the others jump on each other w/words as would be expected when so many kids are together all the time. Natasha though is different and she smiles at us all the time. We took peanuts and almond cookies which were a big hit today, especially the peanuts! Even the kids who refused my offer eventually came over and got some. We pulled in 1 more shy girl to our card game today and the last 2 came over to watch. We've made progress. Dennis, blonde headed boy who is sitting on the floor on the right side as your looking at the previous group picture continues to make us laugh. He plays most of the games with us and has a good sense of humor and laughs and smiles alot. He has 2 younger siblings and 1 older, but they are not in the orphange with him. I am trying to get the rest of his story. He is very calm and sweet. They are all growing on us and we hope they will find homes.
