Heart Finally received Birth Certificate

Just want everyone to know that it looks like we got our birth certificate last thursday May 26th from Sayachen, Peten. The lawyer has secured the passport and was going to try and deliver the paperwork to the embassy today. We are keeping our fingers crossed that the lawyer got it submitted. DNA should be next!!! Oh my god, is that light at the end of the tunnel of hell that I finally see? I think so!!!!!
