Smart Boy

We bought the “Cars” computer game in Russian for D to play with and we have been amazed at just how smart he is. There are all sorts of puzzles and things to figure out and he gets them ridiculously quickly. (The game says 5+, but I will admit that some parts stump me!) So far it seems he is a good mix of both of us – smart & impatient!! Since the weather has been so nice, we’ve loved flying the kite and making bubbles outside. Today we had a couple little girls join us for computer games and bubbles. D didn’t really want them to take a turn on his brand new computer game, but finally obliged. He kept telling and showing the older girls how to do it. He was very cuddly today and wanted lots of hugs, kisses and attention.


Tomorrow is Victory Day to celebrate the end of World War II and they are having another big show/parade. The Director has allowed us to take D to the celebration tomorrow and we are so thankful! We’re going to pick him and the social worker up and then head over to the festivities tomorrow morning. We are anxious to see how tomorrow goes as we know he will be on sensory overload again! Can’t wait to tell y’all all about it tomorrow!

We remember celebrating Victory Day last year in Petropavlosk. that's awesome that you can share it with D. For Americans, it's a little weird cheering on the Russians - you have to keep reminding yourself that we were allies in WWII. Boy have times changed.... :)
