Life is running smooth through Jesus Loves Romania right now. The kids are such interesting blessings to get to know. Katie has fallen in love with a couple of kids in particular; one of which is nicknamed "Grace" after her survival story as an infant. We've been spending time here, as well as wandering around the city. Aaron likes both, but I think he likes the sightseeing more, so I've taken him out a couple of times on my own.

Here's the only problem so far..my camera..a very nice one I might add..was stolen on Sunday. I felt like such a Clark Griswold. I began rummaging in my mind all the pictures that were on the camera, not for the inappropriateness that Clark was searching for, but just thinking of all the identifying pictures that were on it.

I don't know how it happened. I didn't see who took it. I set it down. That was my first mistake. I set it down to tie my shoe. It sounds too goofy to even have happened that way, but when I looked up, nothing. My wallet was still in my pants; even though people say to avoid having your wallet in your back pocket. The only thing missing was the camera. I'm trying to have a good attitude about this bad situation. Perhaps some man or woman didn't have a camera and needed one to photograph some major event in his/her life, and he/she just happened to see mine... Or, the obvious..I've been robbed... The best news is that it's just a material possession that would have eventually rusted away anyways.

God bless..

So sorry to hear your camera is gone! I'm sure you had some great pictures on it....and they can't be replaced. That really saddens me because I enjoyed your pictures so much. Hope that is the only hitch in the trip! Thinking of you daily and hoping God is revealing himself in mighty ways to your family.
