Today is also is the last day of the kids first week at school. Overall they had a great week! They are loving Diana our teacher and getting slowly used to the idea that there is only 3 of them in their class. They are a little overwhelmed with all the kids down at the orphanage right now as it is hard enough for them to get used to 42 kids that they can't understand let alone over 100! Grayden is a bit shy with the kids but getting a little more open, Bridgely doesn't notice he is in a different country I think..LOL and Teagan has found the cutest little orphan boy named Johnny that won't let her put him down.
It has been a wild ride this week but fantastic. Please pray for the kids as they continue to transition and for speed of work so we can finally move into our home. Please pray also for balance as we try to balance all this with the mission work that we are starting.
God Bless

Cheryl,
Say hi to the kids and let them know we are praying for you all. It's hard for me to imagine Graydon being shy after seeing him in the grades 1-5 area, loving large group time! :) Hugs to you all.
Hello friends- Diana is loving your wonderful children. We pray regularly for you and trust the Lord to strengthen you and help you each day.
