Mihaela helping Paula get her shoes on. Paula can wander around the floor

Playing bubbles with Ana-Maria.. she caught one on her finger :)
Ana-Maria and Emily
Paula in her favorite crib of the moment with her favorite toy of the moment (look familiar Evan? LOL My Dec 2008 - Jan 2009 team searched high and low for this toy.. finally finding it at the Carrefour in Iasi.)
Mihi playing with Gabi and the fabulous cat piano.
Mihaela and one of the aides playing with the modeling clay Krista bought.
Catarina putting some of her clay creations away so they can dry.
Lorry drawing a picture of a castle during some down time before our lunch break.
We left for our lunch as always... going down to the bottom floor to the small room off the cafeteria. We had been eating for a few minutes when Mihaela's phone rang. It was Coca explaining that the twins would be leaving shortly. :-( No one had mentioned a thing about them leaving all morning :-( Some of us rushed upstairs to say goodbye.. but Emily felt that it would be better for her not to come up.
pictures of me with Gabi and Mihi.. Gabi was allowed to take her favorite ball.
Mihi did not want to sit still for a picture.. Coca scooped her up and I got some quiet time alone with Gabi to pray a little prayer for her future and tell her I love her!
Coca got to accompany the girls downstairs. We followed behind and Mihaela blew us kisses.
Pictures from afar of Coca and the twins.. not sure why I didn't realize we would be able to see them outside as well.. apparently it was taking some time to load the car so Coca walked the girls over so Emily could say goodbye.
I was so happy Emily had a chance to say goodbye.. so was Mihi!!
a few last games of "Sus"
and it was time to load the van.. la revedere Mihaela and Gabriela.. we wish you all the happiness in the world.. in a loving home where your differences are appreciated!! pa pa our loves!
After our goodbyes we went to the child placement center.. they allowed us to take photos of the courtyard...
After our visit it was back to the hospital and the quiet time of only having a handful of kiddos.. we didn't realize how fortunate we were LOL
Sweet Ana-Maria
Valle getting lots of attention :)

HI Terri: So sad to see Mihi and Gaby leaving! Any idea yet where they went?
Also, do you know if Nadia is wearing nice soft pajamas? I bought her a couple of pairs when I was tehre in April, because the ones she was wearing were like paper bags. Maybe it's the laundry detergent, but I thought someone who is in bed 24/7 needs something softer.

Emily, the picture of you saying goodbye to the twins is especially moving.
I,like Pat, would love to know where they went.
Thanks for the updates, Terri, keep them coming.
