An afternoon at Sally’s house :)

As most of you know, the youngest orphans (as long as they get their homework done) come to my house every afternoon during the week for a few hours.  With the new additions to our orphan family, there are now 10 kids who come and hang out.  One of the nice things about living upstairs at the fellowship center is that the kids have access to the big room downstairs.  So when they don’t want to play upstairs anymore, there is plenty of room for them to run and play downstairs.  Here are just a few pictures of the kids hanging out at my house.

Marius usually prefers to go downstairs and play soccer in the big room.  (sorry about the dirty lens)

Alexandra loves to take our her “table” and draw pictures :)

Razvan and Alex enjoy playing together.


The kids also eat supper at my house, so I always have a few helpers for the meal.  The day Georgi helped me, she decided she wanted to make instant mashed potatoes. We were running a little behind, so we didn’t have time to peel potatoes and wait for them to cook :)

School program for the 8th of March

As I mentioned in my last post, yesterday I was able to attend the special program at the school that the kids were part of.  Here are a few pictures of the event.

The kids also sang a few songs.

After the elementary school program I took a picture of the kids outside of the school.

Not all the kids are pictured, but at least I was able to get a picture of a few of them :)

Larisa, Razvan and Georgi along with the cards, crafts and flower I received for Mother’s Day.   I feel so blessed to be part of all these children’s lives.  Thank you again for helping to make it possible for me to be here to love and care for these precious kids.

Happy International Women’s Day (part 2) :)

As I mentioned in my last post, today is International Women’s Day and the 8th of March is celebrated a lot like America’s Mother’s Day.  So today I found myself at the school enjoying the special programs that the kids prepared.  First I went to kindergarten where Marius and Razvan attend and enjoyed some nice poems and cute songs about Moms.

The kindergarten classes singing up a storm :)

Marius with a few of his classmates.

Razvan also did a good job.

I know that this holiday is a bit difficult for some of our new kids.  This is Razvan’s first Mother’s Day without his mom being around, but I felt very special that he choose to give me a flower and his Mother’s Day card this year.  I will try to get more pictures up of the older kids program a little later.  Have a great day!

Happy International Women’s Day!

More pictures of Kid’s Klub……

Sergiu took some time to make his decision, but he finally figured out what he wanted……

and he was happy with his choice.

David also needed a little time to pick what he wanted…..

but he finally choose what he wanted….he was so intense on checking out his new truck and trailer that he wouldn’t even look up for a picture :)

Elvi really loved her new baby doll.

It’s always a fun day for me when I am able to hand out gifts to the kids.  Let me thank all of you who give towards the work,  your giving helped to make this day special for many of these kids.  Thank you again and God bless you!
