Stahlke Adoption

Child's Play

The younger children love to play make-believe. A few days ago, I endured an extensive "surgery" on my ankle, with expert care from Dr. Rachel and Nurse Sarah. They especially delighted in giving me macaroni pills for pain, but after ten pieces of very crunchy pasta, I cried uncle.

That same day they also played orphanage for the first time. Sarah stood in as the orphanage director, while Rachel worked as caregiver. They assured us they would treat the children kindly, and by the time it was over, Rachel had adopted one of her young charges.
