We will take great care of your daughter so much so that she will be welcomed as our daughter. I cannot imagine your worry of the unknown for her. But we will care for her, she will not be alone.
I will put her to bed too. I will ask her to write in a journal or diary everyday. I want her to think through things and have a way to deal with everything. I will want her to share with me the things that don't make sense to her or that she doesn't understand. I have lived in another country before when Rafael and I were first married. I couldn't have made it without someone to talk to. Things will be differ Here for her . If she is able to share with us what is different not only does it help her deal with it but teaches us about Thailand.
So we will get her things that work well for America. Dont pack a big coat for winter or any sweaters for winter, we can buy her those here when winter comes. Kids here will wear shorts to school for a while and sometimes jeans. We just got Janelle her first pair of jeans with holes in them! she will want a very light jacket or sweater for the plane ride. And that will work for other times too. Kids wear tennis shoe/sneakers and sandals to school. She can just bring the shoes she likes the most and we can get her other shoes when she gets here. It is ok that we go shopping when she gets here, it is all part of getting ready for school for American kids. But if she brings 2 weeks of clothes or something like that to get her started, we can take her shopping. If you tell us what her monthly budget will be, we will be sure she manages it well.

I know youve been preparing for this for a while. Even so, there will be things that you will forget to pack or even just not know what to pack. Do not worry. She is not on her own she is with us. She is part of our family and we will care for her just as we care for Janelle and Josie. If there is anything see needs, and she will need things, we will be sure to get them for her. It is my hope that we can not only provide her needs but also see to her happiness. It is important to me that she is happy and that we provide a safe place where she can relax and have fun. I know it will take some time for her to relax in an environment that is not normal for her. But in time it will feel normal to her. And even in the adjustment phase/time, we will love her. She will always have us.

I hope you are doing well. It is morning here and for you it is night.
Last night my time, I had a meeting with AFS. Below is what I learned that is helpful to you.
-We will be collecting Nong on Thursday August 9th in Nashville Tn.
- There is another family who also have a Thai student in our area (8 hours away from us in Alabama). Maybe we will visit them sometime. Maybe in the Spring.
Nam - will have an orientation after her arrival on Sept. 7-9
Nam - will have a mid-stay orientation Jan. 19th.
Nam - will have a pre-return orientation June 1
Nam- will leave us on June 23 to stay in Nashville
Nam - go to New York on June 24
Nam- depart New York on June 25th.
We are getting so close to her arrival. I am so very excited to have her.

Yes, I think she is happy. We are happy with her. She asks to help around the house. Yesterday she helped me clean the floors, today she helped me with dinner. I told her I was very proud of her and thanked her very much. I asked her if her mom( you) would take .JA &JO and teach them good manners just like she ( you) did for her ( Nam).
We are so very excited about her coming!!! She is a human and yes she is her own person and will have different manners than us not only culturally but also just as a teen would. On the other side, she will understand very early on that we are human too. We make mistakes and have our own personalities some of which are fun and sweet and some of which is the opposite. We will lover her through it all and she will learn to love us through it all as well. I will tell Rafael you said hi. Yes, he is a Dr. but he wishes to be known as Rafael. He reserves his title Dr. for publications and professional matters.
Glad to hear from you. I have a few things to let you know, I am not sure I have seen a picture of you and not sure what size clothing you wear. The girl that was here last year left some winter clothes to see if you can use them. In winter its very cold especially in January and February. You need to have a longer coat then she left for those days, Boots are needed when snow arrives late November -February . Gloves .scarves, socks can be purchased after you get here. Last girl from Hong Kong says she found the cost of goods in Canada expensive. A few things that we ask of you when your here is that you keep your tidy and we do not enter at all , there is even a lock on inside if you want to use it. You can help yourself to anything in fridge , cupboards and your very welcome to cook or use anything anytime. I will show you how to use our washing machine and dryer and you will have to do your own laundry and bedding when you need to. Because students have to do a lot of work on your computers we will have to add time when you are here and we charge $15 per month as the past student paid, Hope you will want to go to same Bank as we do .which I told your dad is Toronto dominion Bank. We eat dinner every night around 530pm-6pm - Need to know what you take for your lunch ...Also you will have to make your own Breakfast and let us know what you eat like eggs,cereal ??? Brian and I work 430am-930 am most days so we need you to make sure you get up for school between 645-700 am as bus leaves at 740 depends on how long it takes you to get up and ready in the morning. Need to know if you have any fears of being home alone . We go out Monday nights to play cards at 7pm-10pm. we like to go out a couple times a month also. Do you have any allergies we need to know about , I think I might have mentioned we have a cat who is 15 years old , who is very spoiled. When we go out to dinner you are always welcome to join us but you will pay for your own dinner and drinks. If not joining us I will prepare or leave stuff for you to cook (as I hear you like to cook and bake) Friends you make are welcome anytime and you can go out with them or the school or homestay anytime we just need to know. On a school night we hope you will be asleep by 11pm on weekends its up to you when you want to go to bed or get up. Hope you have interest in some school activities and /or sports. Television is in our living room and feel free to use at any time, same as shower or bath. Not sure about school books etc but we can buy things you might need when you get here. Any thing you want to ask feel free . Just want to know when and time of your arrival.
