I just want to give a little update. Life has been moving so fast you can not believe since hubby arrived.
When he got to the airport both of my children were with me. We were excited to see him! And we got the video of him arriving.
We have been so busy. Thursday my daughter made him eat a BIG MAC. She took lots of photos eating it. Then we drove him down Yonge Street and across the Gardiner. It was nice to finally get home and wake up beside him. I kept thinking I was dreaming. Also I kept trying to do so much , because I kept forgetting he is not going back. He called his mother and told he is in another world.
Friday I drove to Niagara on the Lake and we had a short walk around there, then we went to Niagara Falls. WE had a buffet for lunch and he won 100.00 in Casino. He couldn't believe the size of the falls, and all people.
HIs favourite place so far is Home Depot. I took him to Square One and he took the subway to the Eaton Centre. I toured him around City Hall Toronto,and Old City Hall. He is amazed at how many cultures we have here, including Sikhs, Muslims, Chinese, Indians etc. HE has toured China town and eaten in a Polish restaurant.
It is so nice to cuddle up to him on the couch and watch movies. We were so cozy last night that we stayed right there and never moved.
On Sunday we went to church at Kennedy Road Tabernacle, and then he visited with one of his aunts who he had not seen in more than 25 years. She is now 90. I only have time to write this because he is being tested for his ESL Courses.
I need to get going now and pick him up. This is the first time I have left him alone and he is a little nervous!
Love this!!!! So happy for you Josephine!!!!!josephine196901 said:Hi there........

Welcome to the JAMFAM forum Svetty!! The posted time on CIC is 25 months from when you get approval, but luckily we have seen some get through lately in about 11-14 months. Everyone is different with the only same thing being is the inconsistency of KGN. However, we are all hopeful that KGN keeps up the speedy work and gets us all through quickly. There is a helpful spreadsheet under Chickie72 or Kadi signatures which you can look at to get an idea. If you would like to provide your details someone can add you to the spreadsheet as well. You will find all the people in this forum very helpful and supportive. Good luck and be patient!svetty said:
Thank you so so much for this, very encouraging!! And thanks for the tip about powerpoint, that will help a lot! I know we are still quite a while away from applying but I think I will start organizing what I have already into one folder on my computer and making copies of the cards/letters/travel receipts that I do have to get a head start, because I know this is going to be a lottttt of work getting this package together!JANAIDIAN MRS said:
