Hurray!!! I was expecting a wait of at least two more weeks, but just heard from my agency and they have my little boy's Guatemala City birth certificate and his passport. I just exited PGN on July 13 so that's an awesome timeline.
I can't wait to turn that magic color PINK!!! I hope this is the beginning of better times at the Guatemala City civil registry. I hope all of you waiting for birth certificates get yours very soon! P.S. And if you want to hear about an awesome agency (my son's) please send me a PM as I'd be glad to share. Have I mentioned that I am floating on air?! I can't wait to get that boy home (and I'm still praying that my daughter is soon to follow). ![]()

Patty - that's awesome! I'm with the same agency, so maybe we will have such luck - although we certainly didn't have the same success in PGN as the rest of their clients.
Can't wait to hear that you are home with your little guy and I hope you are returning soon for your daughter.
