Emily Belle is with her Mommy!!

My friend Betsy left yesterday for Guatemala and word on the net is that she has little Emily Belle with her!! I am so excited to see pictures since I have not seen her since we were in Guatemala in July and I am sure she has changed! I don't know why but I just keep crying every time I think of that miraculous moment when they hand that little one over to you that you have been dreaming and praying about for so long. I have been giving my kids extra squeezes this weekend just remembering what a journey it was to bring them home and what a true Blessing each one is to our family! The status of Guatemala adoptions is in question and I just want to do something to help the country of my childrens birth. I have been praying about it and first and foremost, in case you are getting some crazy notion in your head, it will not be adopting another one. Perhaps some mission work in the future and I have a real desire to learn Spanish so my children will be bilingual. We have had a fun weekend but I left my camera at Steve's grandma's last weekend so no new pics! I may borrow a camera this week to get some good pumpkin and halloween pictures!
