russia - day 3

not too much to say tonight... its late and i'm sleepy.

had a good baby home visit. Amy played with baby T outside, while the rest of us hung back and watched them
get acquainted. She's a lovely child, just a bit unsure yet about the new people that keep looking at her and taking
a million pictures.

the baby home itself is a very old building, but its obvious that the staff put all of their heart into making it a good
place. there is a large playground with very simple toys. a swing, a couple of slides, an old metal train. all are very old, but
they are brightly painted. wild flowers grow along the walking paths and there are quite a few trees.

all of this is surrounded by old, drab apartment buildings. very eastern european looking.
