brink,
I think you hit the nail on the head about expectations. As I think about bringing a 12 almost 13 year old home I sometimes get caught up in the " think of all the things she won't know" but then by dh reminds me, "think of where she would be in all likely hood at age 17 if she was still in Guatemala with no mother. It can be overwhelming unless you step back and widen your perspective.
Michele.
