We showed up today for our morning visit. Jonas was REALLY upset and we finally figured out why. We heard the other children getting ready to go outside to play (and so did Jonas). This means that we would have blocked his outside playtime (a rare event in the winter months) for a second time. I (Sharon) played charades with the caregiver, we wanted to get his outside clothes so we could take him out with his class. They got it pretty quick, I guess I am good at that game! Playing outside was fun, the playground is really nice. These kids are starving for attention, I think it is probably rare that they get chased or thrown up in the air. They were all so cute, I think Jonas was a little jealous to be sharing. Anytime Jason would pick someone else up to throw, he would run over and grab him, this is a good thing! Tomorrow we will go to church again and we are looking forward to that. We will not be visiting Jonas tomorrow, the afternoon visits are pretty hard, he is use to the routine and likes watching cartoons.
We have been able to talk with the girls and that makes being away a little easier. They seem to be doing great. I believe Aunt Kim was taking them to a movie this afternoon, or something fun. It is so comforting to know that they are happy and are being taken care of. We can’t wait until we are all together again.
Thank you for your prayers and please continue to pray for all of us. God is good and he has been with us from the beginning, we have seen his handy work in so many ways. We are so truly blessed! Love and miss our family and friends.
Until next time, here are some pictures.

Nay-o-litsu (outside) looks very cold! Congratulations on your paperwork, ours is going up on Monday and we are praying for a speedy turn around! God Bless!
What a blessing to the other children that they have someone else to pay attention to them! It warms my heart to hear Jonas was jealous because it means he's bonding with you more and more. Love the new pictures! You're still in our prayers.
Looked at the pics and it's great to see that the sand on the orphanage playground is white like snow. Reminds me of Panama Beach. LOL!
Great that you are spending so much time with him, but better load up on cartoon videos for the trip home!
Miss you guys,
Butch and Mandy
Once again, cute, cute, cute! So glad you were able to spend time with Jonas and his friends. I'm sure you brightened their day. What a blessing for all of you!
Have a restful Sunday. We launch FM tomorrow -- be praying for us! Hope to hear more good news soon. We miss you!

Our last 10 days or so we did not visit Mary in the afternoons, either... too hard. We took full advantage of the morning visit, staying the whole 2 hours.. but did not return in the afternoons. I felt guilty at first but it went MUCH better after that.
Glad he is jealous of his daddy :)
too cute!
Hope you don't mind - Morgan showed this blog to Lindsey last week & I took a peek. Jonas is a beautiful little boy & I'm praying for you all. I hope everything goes well, & you are all home in a few weeks!
God bless you!

Sharon & Jason- he is so incredibly cute!! I love the playground pics! He is such a blessed little boy to be going home with you. Praying all goes well in court tomorrow....if so, how much longer before you can head back home?
