What a great picture!
It is so nice to see the two of you together . I can finally put a face to a name.
I hope that you have an amazing time down there and end up back in Guatemala very soon for pick up trip!

Here are two of my favorites, the one where Isabel is wearing a hat is the first night we met her. The other is a tender moment from our visit trip.

Love this...and am so happy I can post a picture of my little girl and her Mommy!
These were taken on our visit trip when Emma turned two weeks old! I am counting down the days, minutes, seconds until I can go see her again!

I'll jump on any opportunity to post another photo of me with my precious baby girl! This is one of the first photos taken of us together -- taken by my agency when our foster mom brought me Maya for the very first time!
