Blanca home almost 2 years, and thinking of you all at this time with many unknowns.
I still check the forums all the time, I think I need help for my addiction. I thought when she was home, it would end. Anyway, here is what a 5 1/2 year old Guatemalan girl looks like, and her actions......priceless. I really hope all your kids are home soon!!!!!!! No adoption is easy, my first failed after PGN, and thankfully I tried again. Your children Will come home!!!!!
