More visits to Billa Vserka

We have been spending long days trying to get paperwork submitted so we can get a court date. We have also had a good time getting to know Artem. He is a busy little guy and mimics what he sees. I think he will do very well with sign language. The orphanage is really very good. We sat for an hour and a half waiting for Artem to get back from a dr. appt, in that time we saw the oldest kids head out to do their chores, the ones with DS almost always grinned at us and waved. The younger groups filed out with their caregivers in twos and here too, the kids with DS were smiling at us ear to ear. One little guy broke loose from his partner and ran to me open armed yelling mama and gave me a big hug. His partner then dragged him off still grinning and waving. We played with Artem outside and in their big playroom. He is a lot of fun and all boy. When we went today Roma told us they said we need to be sticter with him as he is already getting spoiled. I am not sure what it is they think we are letting him get away with, he is bound to be a little wound up with the new attention. It is interesting to get to know his mannerisms, when he is nervous or upset he holds the back of his hand to his mouth. When he is tired he likes to have something in his mouth and hand that he can rub on his face. Tomorrow we will go either to Ladyzhin or back to see Artem, we will find out later. Just trying to be patient with the process.
