We continue to hear nothing from Guatemala and have no idea where things stand with any of the cases that are needing to complete. It is hard to remain in limbo.

We continue to believe that God is working and that His plan is for all of our good. Even when we can't see it in the here and now.

We are NOT forgotten. If you have a chance and you are struggling with something that is leaving you feel that God has forgotten YOU, please listen to the January 30 morning service on the above link. "Journeying with Joseph: Forgotten".

It impacted me.

Deeply.

I left the service weeping. Just weeping.

And it brought to my life the reality of believing in God when my eyes don't see.

Love to you all, from me and from my Guatemalan sweeties who continue to wait.

Oh Dawn! That letter from your kids just breaks my heart!

I hear the Lord working faith in their hearts through this hard time.

I continue to pray for you and Ronaldo and Julia. They are so fortunate that they know you love them and are fighting for them.

Sarah said...

Oh Dawnz... what precious words from your kids... they have hope, they love you, they are prayerful.

I am still in disbelief that they are still waiting. Never in our wildest dreams could they still not be home.

Always praying, always...

Thandi said...

Just reading their letter made me cry.

Mamita J said...

They are not forgotten. God is working in their lives, even as they wait.

It is an honor to pray for them and for you.

Have you been getting the updates from the the State Department on what they are doing in Guat to facilitate all the remaining adoptions? If you aren't, I can forward them to you and also the link to sign up for them. Right now it's the only way I am getting info. There is also an e-mail you can send specific questions to and let them know where your case is stuck so they can work on it.

Hi --hey I don't know if you remember me--but my name is Crystal ...we adopted two littles ones from Guatemala...

I hope this doesn't sound crazy what I am about to ask and I am so sorry if it sounds intrusive ....I saw your comment on someone else's blog about a private attachment blog and I wondered if I could be included.

Our little guy from Guatemala doesn't have full blown RAD...but he does have some attachment issues...we were the fourth home in the first year of his life...there is also so much we were not told when we adopted him that we later found out.

Anyway he struggles a bit and I am trying to help him. (I don't blog about any of this)if it is not too intrusive I would really love to be included but if I can't then thats okay too :) Thanks for listening :)

((((HUGS))))) to you and yours
Sincerely
Crystal
