Her diet in the orphanage is slop--literally. I fattened her up pretty good over the summer. On the day before she was to leave I made her favorite, corn on the cob and milk. I tried to get her to eat more than she could really hold telling her she would not get this when she returns to the orphanage. She said "it's okay papa. I enjoyed it while here." I was recently in Ukraine and walked to the store to buy the kids some milk. I bought as much as I could carry. Upon seeing the excitement and diligence at which the milk was consumed I asked Kristina "when was the last time you had milk?" She said "at your house in America." (Over a year ago!) Tears came to my eyes but was comforted as I remembered her words "It's okay papa." I am going to eat as much as I can hold as usual this thanksgiving. "It's okay."

Neurotic in the USA? Big time. No clue as to what we have been blessed with?? Absolutely. Forgot our roots? Puritan what? Adam who? Not aware of God's Grace? Not even close. Loved anyway? Ya... Fer sure fer sure. Most certainly true… amen to that!
