I was thrilled to receive updated photos today from the agency, alittle Mother's day gift of sorts. Of course I would rather news that he was coming home or that we were atleast back in PGN, but neither of those occurred so I will take pictures of our precious little boy! He is just so cute and I swear I see teeth in one of those photos. He looks to be sitting alone (good developmental sign)and happy. I can tell that he has completely grown out of the clothes I had sent since he is in an outfit from his foster mom and I know they always try to photograph him in items we send down.
As far as a legal update goes I have no good news on that front. We were told by AS today that the civil registery is STILL not done the paperwork (week 6)!!! We are frusturated beyond words but the Adoption Supervisors tell us that it is better for them to take their time and do it right rather than submitting paperwork that will get thrown out of court. I will continue to keep you posted.
And as Mother's Day approaches, I am very clear that one of my greatest joys comes from another mother's greatest sorrow. I wish I could thank Joey's birth mother for the incredible gift that she has given us and let her know her son, our son, is safe and well and so deeply loved.
Happy Mothers Day to all of the moms out there, especially my own and John's, the new ones and those whose babies are apart from them right now!!
Love,
Lee Anne

Lee Anne, I just wanted to wish you a Happy Mother's Day this morning. You are a beautiful, incredible, strong woman and Mother. I believe, in life God has a plan for each of us and sometimes places special people(I call them Angels on Earth)in our lives when they are needed most. You are one of those special people to me. You keep me going on days I think I can't emotionally hold up anymore and this adoption journey seems "never ending". You always make me laugh and put a smile on my face. I am honored to have you as a friend. How special is it, that we live so close together, are both adopting baby boys from Guatemala(and they are only 4 months apart in age) and we have so much in common(clones as we call it, :) )Thank you for your friendship. Happy Mother's Day.
Love,
Trina
Happy 9 months today Joey! Mommy and Daddy will be there soon to visit! I can't wait to see all the pictures from the trip.
Love,
Trina
