Things are going well here. Not much to report other than we are on day 2 of the 10 day wait period. This is going to be a long week and a half! We have a driver to take us to the orphanage to visit Kyle every other day, so our off days are especially long! Many of you asked his age, and I forgot to mention this in previous posts. He is 3 years old and will be 4 on March 3rd. Here are a couple more photos of Kyle as well as some of the other children at this orphanage. We took a tour of the orphanage the other day and got to see his “bedroom”; you can see Kyle standing next to his bed. We also got to see Kyle’s “groupu”. We don’t get to see many children so when we happen to see them, I take pictures. The girl in the hallway is in Kyle’s group.

One of the pictures I took when we were outside playing. Another group was walking around, and I saw this little boy chewing on something. I got up to him a little closer and noticed it was a cigarette box! I had to take a picture!

In addition to going to the orphanage, we try to walk down to the internet café as much as possible which is plenty far for us, especially walking in the cold! We have been without hot water for the past 3 days which has been interesting. We have to be very creative when bathing! Other than the water issue, our apartment has been cozy. We cannot wait to get home, though. We miss our home, work, family, friends, and all the good food America has to offer!! It is amazing how much we have taken for granted and being here has made us realize how lucky we are to live in America.
