More pIctures

This is the infamous "room" where you are allowed to spend time with your children. There has never been any explicit mandate not to go anywhere else in the orphanage, but I think it is somewhat of an unspoken rule that this is where you are allowed - you can go outside with the kids and play a little but only under the supervision of a guard.

This is Yuri (I think that is his name), a guard that is there on the weekends with Sergei. He dresses in casual clothes and is very nice. The other guard is very nice also, but is in an official guard uniform.
Alex with Yuri. This was taken on our court day - the only picture we have of you on that day! We feel so bad that there wasn't more of a celebration but you were whisked off so quickly that we didn't have time to react.
Amanda and Becky in "the room," waiting for the boys.
Alex caught cheating trying to be all innocent, "Who me?"

I mentioned in a previous post that some of the kids are very skilled at making paper sculptures. Becky is holding a beautiful swam that Sergei made for her out of paper. It is hard to see but they are very elaborate.
