Emily, J.Michael and I were in Michael's recently shopping for various craft items for projects when we stumbled across a sweet reminder of Kathlena.--
The last day we visited with her at the orphanage we were able to observe her with her group and caretaker. We watched them eat lunch, clean up, and then play a game. The game was a magnetic fishing game. All of the kids were allowed to take turns trying to catch the fish. Kathlena was very excited about this game and loved to try and catch the fish.
While at Michael's J.Michael spotted the very same game. I couldn't believe that over 6,000 miles away we had stumbled on something familiar for Kathlena. Of course we had to buy one thinking it would be a great game for the plane trip home and something to break the ice as she leaves everything she has ever known. We praise the Lord for sweet reminders like this of our precious Russian children...you are always on our minds and close to our hearts. Missing you is so much harder than we ever imagined--we love you and hope to be coming quickly.
