Here are some pictures of Valera ice skating, grocery shopping, touring Donetsk. We ate pizza last night. As we walked away Valera told Anya that it was his first time eating pizza. Had I known I would have taken a picture. I learned to take pictures of everything moving forward.
Valera has amazing manners. He thanks us for everything. He still will only eat if we are eating. He is saying "thank you, good night, pajamas, good job, you're welcome, yes, no, car" in English already.
WOW ! Words escape me. God is amazing - this love story is amazing. thanks so much for the pictures , Lisa. i look forward to reading your blog EVERY day. We love you all and are praying daily for a smooth journey.

Awesome journey! Thanks for sharing. The dolphin show and ice skating were probably a huge treat for Valera. Lots of firsts to experience with him. And now you have experienced the train too. It's quite a ride any way you look at it. Enjoy every minute and write as much down as you can. May God continue to go before you and pave the way!
