Today we met our son for the first time and he is amazing. This afternoon John and I received the referral that we have been waiting for via e-mail from our agency. Neither of us could believe how we just fell in love with him. His name is will be Joseph (Joey for short) and we cannot wait to meet him and hold him. He was born in Guatemala City, Guatemala on August 17, 2006. He was born 6lbs 12ounces and from his assessment by a pediatrician there has been deemed healthy.
The process will now officially begin. After MONTHES of collecting the correct paperwork, having it notarized, state certified and authenticated by the Guatemalan Consulate we will now begin proceedings to bring our son home. Typically this porcess runs 6-8 monthes long! Now is the time that I must really practice my patiences that many of you know I am lacking.
Keep us and Joey in your prayers! Keep you posted on our progess.
