We live in Indiana and have NOTHING like your camping pictures in our back yard. Your kids look great. This week, we ran into a lady from Russia at our local mall. She tried to talk to my son in Russian, but he would have nothing to do with it. He wants to forget all about Ukraine. It is good that your kids can still write Ukrainian/Russian well enough to convince another that the U.S. isn't all that bad. The same thing happened to my son. His teacher told him how bad the U.S. was. Our facilitator was able to phone a friend adopted to Indianapolis who was able to tell my son that the U.S. wasn't all that bad. It is nice that your children have Ukie friends. I don't know of any in our small town.Siyang E Phoyadxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15327756492843577696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6668995971145288694.post-1300782963974254502010-10-18T11:01:12.831-05:002010-10-18T11:01:12.831-05:00Awesome update, Alan!
