How many kinds of water are there?!

This has been a real dilemma for us--we keep trying different brands of water each time we go to the store. So far we've ended up with sparkling, mineral, flavored, and still (not on purpose!) We think we finally found a brand to stick with! Seriously, today we had a visit from George, our coordinator here in Hungary. He gave us some more details for the rest of our intinerary here. Tomorrow we will meet with the social worker first and then go visit Max in his foster care home for a short while. Crazy! The following days we will spend a portion of with Max. Oh, and by the way, we will be staying here in our apartment in Hajduszoboszlo--which is great, because it's safe and spacious and we won't have to move our stuff and resettle and move back again. On Tuesday or Wendesday we will go to Budapest for the day for an appointment with the American consulate there. George is very kind and no nonsense. He's working hard to move the process along. We're in good hands. We're both excited and scared about tomorrow, yet have a sense of peace in the midst. God is present.
