"But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance."- St. Peter. "And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come." - Jesus.

Abigail at Russian School



(Blogged on November 4th.)

Our big event that we returned for was to see Abigail settled in to Russian school. We wanted to get back early enough to all settle back into speaking Russian, especially Abigail.
The first "bell" of school is a big event for Russian children. Abigail got all dressed up and attended a special presentation at the school with her class and the other new classes. We were able to see her classroom and teacher for a short 15 minute introductory class. It was a special rite of passage, not only for Abigail, but also for us as parents settling deeper into Russian society and local community.
