No special pictures to record this week - the temperatures dropped quite a bit, and you'd almost think it was still winter! So our planned family outing this week turned into a family "inning." Hopefully we'll have something fun to show you next week.
Our passports are still being held up, but we've been told that we could get them as early as next week. Our letter of invitation should be ready on March 9th, so, as long as we have our passports by that time, we will be able to apply for our Russian visas, which should give us enough time. Thank you for continuing to pray for these details to come together. We covet your prayers!
Personally, I confess to feeling a bit of stress. All these variables out there, and they all have to come together in the right way and at the right time, and there are still a number of unknowns. How will the Russian authorities in Vladivostok respond to our request for temporary residency? How will people respond to our message? Will Andrew adjust well back into Russian life? Will we be able to find a day care for him? Who will be our language teachers? You can pray for me, for flexibility and comfort with ambiguity. :)
Also, please pray for us, that God would bless us with another child. We'd still like for Andrew to have a little brother or sister (he just says he wants a brother). Many of you know that Angela miscarried with our second child close to a year ago. We are still trying, so keep up your prayers!
With that, I'll close for this week. Have a blessed week!
