One of my reasons to visit Romania with my parents was to meet the people they love and that love them in return. I was in constant amazement of the deep friendships they share.
We stayed in "Mama Ghita's" home.
Here she and her sister posed for a picture...sweet women...
Tinca Church Children
Another David
Lifting "weights" with Cristi
This dear woman prays for my parents every morning and evening.
Daniel and Roxanna -- love these kids!!
Gypsy Children I had the privilege of teaching.
A Wonderful Christian family -- so many things I could say about our time spent with them.
Maybe later...
This family lived down the street from my parents in Solanta. Let's just say they were VERY EXCITED to see Mom and Dad show up unexpectedly!!!! We received royal treatment!!
A dear lady - Eva - that works in the orphanage.
One of the two birthday cakes that dad received while there.
David and Cipiri see each other after 4 years. This isn't the picture that shows their happy faces but I'm too lazy to change it.
All the children couldn't get enough of playing with David!
David meets a new friend, Josef. Here they are discussing the rules of baseball - a very uncommon game in Romania!! Soccer rules there.
This woman was sitting outside her gate when she spotted us. Her kiss says it all.
The children from the church in Batar.
These girls have lived at the orphanage since they were very young.
They were so happy to see "Grandpa and Grandma" again and could hardly say good-bye.
The neighbor from down the street...sooo happy to see the "big" David.
