Denis

Hey everyone! Thought I would share some of my experience so far!

Denis is very willing to communicate with us, whether over the phone or trying to speak it. He has told me so much about him and where he lives in Ukraine.

Thursday he slept almost the whole morning away. When I finally got him out of bed, we wrapped Christmas presents and played cards! He also worked out with Stephen before dinner because he told me he liked to "pump muscle!"

After Thursdays dinner we have had a tough time, not because of Denis though. My daughter who is 21 months old got admitted to the hospital with pneumonia. It is coming on Sunday morning and she is still in the hospital. Prayers for her are very appreciated! Because of Kenley being sick, Denis has kind of been shipped around.

Friday he stayed with Mary Beth, a HUGE blessing. He enjoyed seeing her and Anya and having boys to play with. Saturday he hung out with Yuri some at the Vickers house. So blessed they were able to help us!

We are taking everything one day at a time, but hopefully we will be home soon. Denis has been amazing, especially with the craziness. I am ready to bond even more once things are "normal!"

Today (Sunday), Denis will come to church and then back to check on Kenley. I hope everyone else is having a great time!

  1. I am so sorry to hear about your daughter! That is a helpless feeling. Prayers are being sent.

    Dennis sounds like he is taking everything in stride.
