Another bump in the road.....

I talked to my facilitator this morning. First there was the sudden and untimely death of a well known and respected attorney in Guatemala last week. That took my attorney and many others out of commission for a few days. And then the CR of Mixco issued a previo on my file. (I have no idea what it was for but I do know it was a small simple error). The previo has been corrected and was resubmitted yesterday afternoon. Supposedly if all goes well, the new BC should/could be picked up tomorrow. Then off to the Embassy for the DNA. This probably cost me about a week. Being in Guatemala for Charli's first birthday is going to be tough unless I want to go well ahead of my potential appointment. I'll know more once the BC is picked up and the DNA is actually done.

Eric happened to call in on his way home from a mini-vacation (much needed). He thinks that as far as this adoption goes, I've been pretty unlucky. In some ways maybe I have been. But in the grand scheme of international adoption it's been pretty fast. I really would like for one step of this process to go fast and smooth. Maybe the DNA will be that step.

Keep praying for us.
