aloha everyone, and happy thanksgiving. We got the best news today... we have pink!!!! We thought they would call friday or monday, but what a wonderful surprise. I haven't written much on this forum but am very thankful for all of you. It has been a long road(we lost our first referral in April) but now we are bringing our boy home-God is Good.Our embassy appointment is on Friday Dec. 2nd. If any of you you are going to be there then, we would love to meet you. Please pray for our long trip from honolulu to guatemala. We are staying at the marriott from nov. 30th - dec. 6th.
