It is early in the morning and Cyndi is still sleeping. In a couple of hours we are getting up and getting ready for our flight to Kazakshtan.
Our flight to Kazakshtan will take about 8 hours. Once we get to Almaty, Kazakhstan we have about a 6 hour drive to get to the adoption city. At this point we don't know if we are heading directly to the adoption city or spending a day or two in Almaty. The coordinator in Almaty will be letting us know as soon as we get there. If we do head directly to the adoption city it is unlikely that we will be able to post to the journal for a day or two.
We certainly have been spoiled with our wireless connection to the internet in our hotel in Amsterdam. It still amazes me that I can type on my laptop with no wires attached and be able to update our website, Instant Message with family and friends, connect to our work computer etc. Somehow I don't think we will be as lucky in Kazakshtan, but we will soon find out.
As Cyndi said in yesterdays post, it is indeed funny how fast time goes. It seems like yesterday we were getting on a plane for Kazakhstan to meet Max for the first time. I recall my feelings at the time. "How will I feel about this child I am about to meet?" "What if we don't connect?" It seems pretty foolish in retrospect. However, I can't help feel today, "What if I don't find a child that I connect with?"
Cyndi and I always tell people that adoption is a leap of faith. And although it is totally against my nature, I am about to take another huge leap of faith. "Is it possible that another child is waiting for us in Kazakhstan?????"
