Love in three languages

God has blessed my daughters with a new friend. Jonleanne is Puerto Rican and is staying here at Ronald Mconald house for about as long as we are. Sasha's so excited about having a friend. Never mind that this friend only speaks Spanish...Sasha Russian and Patience English. The three of them run the halls giggling and having so much fun it proves we don't need words to communicate. They have the best time acting out what they want to say to each other and half the time they really don't figure it out but just laugh their way through it. Oh, and my African Patience is speaking English with a Spanish accent. It is all terribly funny and a perfect gift from God. Sasha never mentions hurting when they are playing and with all the things they are doing she is joining right in so who needs occupational therapy when playing does the same job but is much more fun! Tonight we played Bingo and my Ukranins who both act like they don't know their numbers in English managed to blow their cover as Sasha won the first round and Judah nearly won the last. Hmm I was being scammed pretty good on that one. Target gift cards tend to help them both suddenly understand perfectly lol! We have two castings next week so please keep praying for Sasha. She doesn't realize that yet and because her fear overwhelms her I'm not telling her until I need too. If the next recovery goes as well as this one perhaps her fear will lessen. Prayers for courage and strength would be a blessing.
