I'm a mom!

Ethan is right behind me in the internet room, playing with some dinosaurs and getting bored and bothering the guy who works here, so this will be quick. Our flight from KyzylOrda to Almaty was actually on time today (what a concept), and Ethan was very brave on the flight. He's being a total sweety. He gets quiet when we get in the car, but he seems to be handling everything incredibly well. He doesn't seem overwhelmed with all the changes, and he's been excited to be with me today. Through the translater, I found out that he likes our hotel room.

Right now he's chatting with the guy who runs the internet room, speaking in Kazakh. He told the man that his mama and papa bought him his new clothes. It's really hard to write this because he keeps interupting -- guess that's what life is going to be like for the next decade or so. Anyway, we're doing great. I'm a bit sleep deprived and jet lagged, but otherwise so good so far.
