Congratulations
Ben,
Lori,
Naomi, and
Zach, we have found three children from Russia for you!
Marfa is ten and the oldest of the three. She lost her legs in an accident which killed her parents, so she must be in a wheelchair. She was not able to get one until she came too us. However, she is a bright girl who loves to learn. She also loves to take care of children - especially her siblings.
Nataliya is her five-year-old sister who was also injured in the accident. Her injuries were only to the extent of a lost toe and two lost fingers. This does not stop her from climbing trees and all manner of things. She is a tom-boy.
The youngest is two-year-old
Osip. He was only a baby when the accident happened and he injured his head badly. This made him retarded. The doctors say that he will be able to learn quite a bit, but will probably always think as a child would. He will need lots of loving care.
We would love to know how
Marfa,
Nataliya, and
Osip are doing!
