Caleb is In The House

When we got to the orphanage today we checked on Caleb first and guess what, he was there.  He came running, jumped into my arms and hugged me so tight and leaned backwards to grab ahold of Gary.  He was soooo happy!  He started to head outside like we used to do and the nanny stopped him and said a few things and so we played inside.  We only stayed for about an hour as it was about time for his lunch and we thought we might get to see Peyton for a little bit.  We looked in the few places that we knew Peyton might be and couldn't find her so we sat outside.  We waited for a while but never did see her and so we left.  We returned in the evening and saw her for about 45 minutes and then left to see Caleb for a little bit.  Her demeaner today was a little different and I think she may be just as tired of this same routine everyday as we are.  We got to see one of her workbooks from school and she has beautiful Ukrainian cursive handwriting. There is a picture below that she drew with her name written on it.  She now knows how to spell Peyton without me telling her the letters.  I think these kids are going to do so well once we get home and get used to our new normal.  God has truly blessed us.
