Update

Yesterday was another good day with our new children! Took them to a park and then to lunch(chicken...lots and lots of chicken here!). We continue to build relationship with them and share fun moments together. At lunch, E tapped Kristine on the shoulder with a twinkle in her eye, pointed behind me and told me to "look". Then stole a french fry from my plate! Some jokes work in any language! 

 We grow in our spanish each day and we are teaching the kids some English as well. We are working hard to connect with each child individually as we spend time with all. We appreciate your prayers for that.

Today we are having a going away party at the orphanage so all the kids can celebrate with our 4. Tomorrow we need to sign some paperwork to receive custody of the kids and then we will spend time seeing the orphanage and learning about the kids daily schedules. Then we will take them to the small apartment we have rented and they will be with us from then on!

We will still be in Huancayo for 2 weeks to complete the adoption process. We expect to fly to Lima on June 17 to finish the immigration part of the process. There have been no delays yet, so we are still targeting a return to Denver in late June.

I love that they are comfortable enough to joke and play with you already :-D
