Tomorrow, October 5, 2007, Stephan was going back to Kazakhstan to bring our daughter home. It will
Almaty dimanchevers 5:00 AM, then later in Pavlodar midnight Sunday night, then be back in Almaty on Monday with the Angelika nuitvers 1h30AM, then leave for Canada on Wednesday morning so that I found at the airport to 17.00.
We look forward to find our daughter and see how it will react to all this change and this trip.
We hope that everything will be fine on the plane.
So Sveta all know the route they Stephan and the wait at airports. Angelika papers are all ready (we had left a further period of 5 days before the arrival of Stephan to enable them to settle all the paperwork without problems, despite potential delays) and arrangements for housing are all made by Sveta from Almaty and Pavlodar before the arrival of Stephan.
So everything is going well and it only remains to stress vis-à-vis the possible reactions of Angelika! That's right ... the adoption, adaptation and expectation.
Stephan n'amènra not his laptop, so I will try to give you some news as soon as possible.
Thank you all for following us during our journey. We hope our blog will help prospective adopters of Kazakhstan in their preparations.
Kazakhstan is very different from Canada and we must expect delays and obstacles during the process, but when we know that everything is set and that our child goes to Quebec defenition to spend the rest of his life with us, the problems we seem far behind.
Thanks to the team of the Alliance of Quebec families for making our dream possible. The agency is still young and we will be happy to pass on our comments to help provide the best service and the best possible preparation for future adopters of Kazakhstan.
PS For those who wonder why we have finally made two trips instead of one as planned ... Well as fate would decide Angelika a little brother or sister in March 2008. That's why we came back, just to see the doctor, make a pre-natest and especially eating food known to reduce nausea!
soon, Julie
