One More Day

Tomorrow night we'll be leaving to go back to Ust-Kamenogorsk. We will fly to Germany then to Almaty then to Ust. We are all excited to go back and see Askar ("ah-scah") Of course, we will bring peanut butter crackers and Cheerios. Haley is bringing her legos to show him too. We have to bring clothes for him because he has to leave his clothes at the orphanage (we won't disagree with them on that rule!) We are packing much lighter this time so we don't get charged a $100 each way for overweight luggage. We're still a little worried about taking him out of the only home he has ever known and into the big world. I'm sure everything will be very scarey for him. We will try to keep him from having to worry about fending for himself and let us take care of it now so he can just be a toddler. We also can't wait to get him to a doctor. I already made the appointment for when he gets back. Our dogs are going back to the kennel again this afternoon because they can't be dropped off tomorrow. I feel bad that they have to go back there.
