Yesterday, our team was commissioned to Russia, July 2005. About 10 of us are going through SOAR International and Bethany (our church) to work at an orphanage, with the fatherless. I am fatherless, not an orphan, but I feel a connection to some degree.
Children: Our two daughters are such friends. Right now they're playing CandyLand. Wow, it moves me how Isabela loves to play, talk, and calls out Canela when she can't find her. "Canela! Where are you?" It makes me tear up. I guess I want that in my life, don't we all? A friend, a sister (I have two in Nicaragua) that I can play with.
