No castle!!!

The days are flying by. If they could have only went as fast while we were in Ukraine. Deonna is doing great. She uses very little Ukraine language now. She does have a small speech problem. She cant pronounce the letter R,M or V. We are going to meet with a speech teacher soon. She is doing good in school. Of course, she's way behind the other children in her class, but the social skills are improving and she is more interested in books and coloring than before. She did get a sad face on her paper today for telling the gym teacher no. We talked to her about listening to her teachers and we took her "castle" away for the day and she couldn't watch her new Beauty and the Beast movie tonite. She wasnt happy about either one. Hopefully, tomorrow will be better. She is also eating more foods than before. We can actually go for two or three days with no eggs!!! That is huge!! God Bless!!!

I just found your blog and was surprised to see we were in the country at the same time! Aaach! :) So close and yet so far. I'm glad to hear your daughter is adjusting well. Maddie is doing surprisingly well too. Aren't these girls the best?!

Hi Melissa! Dima has speech issues too--they probably all do from that groupa if they spent all of their time talking to each other! LOL
