Crazy concerts and phenomenal kids...

Yesterday we went to the orphanage to start up our 8th and 9th grade ministry again. There were 9 of us all together. I fee so blessed to have that many people wanting to go and serve the kids. It went okay. We need to try and find a place where we can take the kids for a few hours because it would just better I think. Right now they have class and the teachers are not always helpful with making the kids go where they are supposed to and kids are coming in and out. There are a little of kids who want to participate and I think taking them away to a separate place would really be beneficial. But hands down the best part of the day was the Miss Youth concert the kids put on. It was competition between 5 girls from different classes. Each one had to do singing, dancing, talking, and cutting cabbage (thats right I said cutting cabbage) it was one of the things they got judged on. It really was so fun to watch and be a part of. Although, the girls took it really seriously. A few were crying when they were not the winners. I was so tired when I woke up yesterday morning and honestly I did not want to go to Pravda. I kept praying for joy and energy to love on the kids. After getting to the orphanage and being with the kids I didn't even need to try and be happy I just was. My kids were so fun to be with and I just love them so much.

But it did really make me want to find some family to host Yuroslav. I even talked to his teacher again about him last night. She kept telling me what a great boy he is. He really has the such a soft spirit and beautiful heart. I would love to him and Ura hosted. I of course would want someone in California so that I could be selfish and share in the experience with them. But at this point I do not care where it is I just want them to be loved on from a real family. So please please please, if you know anyone that you think would want to do this, have them contact me.
