We're here! We just arrived in our hotel a couple of hours ago in Burgas, Bulgaria after 4 plane rides and over 30 hours of travel from start to finish...and need I say only 2 hours max of sleep! We also just lost 8 hours. Yes, we're heading to bed very soon, but just wanted you all to know that we're here. It is 10:30 in Bulgaria as I write this.
We meet our little Victoria tomorrow morning at 9:30. We're told that she is the orphanage's "princess". I'm sure she will be greatly missed in Bulgaria when we can bring her home in 4 months. We were also told that she is very bright and that she has been enrolled in kindergarten this year. This is somewhat unusual because orphanage children often have delays - in this area and others. I can't wait to tell you what she is like!
Our accommodations are very adequate and our guide/translator is very helpful. Thank you for your prayers; we have felt God working through every one of them.
great to here from you steph.

We are praying for you there and your girls here and can't wait to hear more about Victoria!
ReplyDeleteJohn & Stephanie,
ReplyDeleteSo glad to hear of your safe arrival and that Victoria is doing well at the orphanage. We'll be praying that you'll have a God-honoring visit with her and that the Lord will unite your ENTIRE family sooner rather than later!
