Chilling out, maxing, relaxing all cool

   Well our last team of the summer left this past week and I guess that means we have finally wrapped up an incredible summer of ministry. Things really slow down out here in August. A large portion of the population takes vacation and everything just seems to chill out a bit. The kids were away at the mountains for a week and got to ride horses and raved about the good food (meaning soup). We have spent the past few days just hanging out with kids. We had a couple of older kids over for dinner (when the little ones were at the mountains) and we watched a movie and hung out and talked. Haley has been bringing books and having story time with the little ones and afterwords we play cards and laugh and joke. We brought a Romanian dubbed version of the Jungle Book to the orphanage a few days ago and the kids sat transfixed for 2 hours laughing along with the movie. If anybody started talking they were quickly met with a chorus of shhhhhhhhs's. This is quite rare as even movie time is accompanied by a cacophony of small chatter and side conversations, but they had been so incredibly bored that they were determined to suck every ounce of entertainment out of the movie.
