Our Last Day Together as a Party of Four

Den, Anya, and Sasha are leaving for Donetsk early tomorrow morning. Big breath. How can I do this? We've made so much progress since we got to Kiev. Now Sasha gets knocked back down to the ground again.  Start over. I know, he's tough. He's had to be. He assures me he'll be okay. Oh Lord, I hope he's right. The silver lining is that I have Anya and Den in town to check on him and be my voice.

The four of us had fun today, enjoying this beautiful city and talking about Sasha's new life in America.

I'll have two full days to myself here in Kiev before flying home on Saturday. I'll catch up on the blog (I will write about our amazing NYE) and hopefully my sleep. I may even read my book that I keep bringing to Ukraine. I'm a little nervous about venturing too far into the city on my own, although I've gotten to know the city center pretty well after this, my fourth visit. Kiev really is a beautiful, fascinating, sophisticated city.  And (holding my breath) I should only have one more brief visit.
