Second group meeting
Yesterday my parents met again the other couples which will leave soon with them to China.
Martine and Frederic had proposed a good Italian restaurant : Don Antonio at Jambes (close to Namur)… The personnel is there really very kind.
This time, Adilia and Antoine were with us, which enabled them to be integrated into the group.
Maud and Christophe were already present when my parents arrived… And yes…. for once they were not the first…;-). Then followed of Martine, Frederic, Maria and Franco, Adilia and Antoine and finally Bénédicte.
Maria and Franco had several contacts with people who had adopted in China… in general people are very open to the dialogue and share easily and friendly their experiences.
Maud and Christophe explained their meeting with Linne and her parents (Marina and Patrick)… They are really brilliant people who gave them lots of tricks for the travel in China.
Maud will forward to us a small summary of all Marina’ advices.
Mom awaits it impatiently… in order to envisage and to organize lots of things in advance… this will reassures her…
Of course each one discussed the preparations, the books (read or not read), Travel organization, waiting time, hopes and fears…
Of course one of the most tackled subject was the new belgian adoption law and its transitional measures… This law is very good but the transitional measures are too vague, not ready and looks very confusing. As soon as it is a actual information is available, a new post will be published.
The cohabitation during few weeks should be without problem. According to my parents, this is a desire of support and share coming from each one of the group…
The next meeting should take place at Amarna Office for the preparation to the travel…
All are awaiting the end of the month for finally receiving our news…
