Marina is in America! She is growing stronger every day. She is learning new things, and experiencing all sorts of new things she never experienced, having lived her whole life in a hospital ward. Here are some of her firsts:
First balloon and boy does she love it!
First ride in a car and was she fascinated!
First ride in an airplane and that was not fun! Ten hours in a car seat breathing dry air. No fun.
First dinner party. It was somone's birthday, but Marina was the hit of the party! She is winning more hearts in America every day!
First time to have a bath every day! Yuck! She does not enjoy it yet, but she will more when her feet are all healed up and she can splash around in the water. We can't do that yet.
First taste of something strawberry, and many other new flavors she is really enjoying. No more just having milk kasha three times a day. She is addicted to Pedia Sure! She loves it!
Please pray that the hospital situation will be worked out soon so she can have the cleft pallat surgery done and other problems taken care of. Two hospitals are interested in helping her, one offering a full grant if they examine her and think they can help her.
Pray also for Oleg, Nikita and other children from the orphanage who are still waiting for their chance to be in a home and receive the care they need.
