Our Kitchen & Anastasia

So how do you like our dishwasher? We think the dish drainer over the sink is the greatest.











This is a picture of Anastasia, age 12. She is one of two youth who came with the group from the Moscow West Mission. [The other is a 13 year old boy from Kazakstan (sp?) -- Look that one up on the map!]

While their parents are doing endowments all day, they are doing baptisms for the dead twice a day. As we came home from the temple this evening, we saw Anastasia sitting in the stairwell of our little apartment building, sketching portraits of one of the couple in the Russian group (from a picture on her cell phone, which she is holding in her hand). We talked her into doing a sketch of us, so she's going to do a portrait for us, too. We think (she speaks no English, but I think we got the message across). In return, Mom is making a counted cross stitch picture of the temple for her.
