P - I - N - K - After 7 Years Of Waiting!
After 7 years of waiting to bring our precious daughter home (it will be 7 years on August 14th), we received the e-mail from the Embassy yesterday afternoon!
Ours is an abandonment case and we were submitted on Monday, August 4th, received PINK yesterday, August 7th, and our Embassy appointment is Thursday, August 14th! Please pinch us! No need for a plane to fly us to Guatemala, we are still flying high from the news! Thank you for all of the support throughout the good times and bad! Thank you Damaris for all of your help...you are a very special person. I pray Nidia will soon be home.
