Coming Home!

Hallelujah! The day of Elizabeth's homecoming has been scheduled! The Embassy appointment is Friday May 4. We are allowed to leave Guatemala on Tuesday May 8. I am very excited as is the rest of the family. I will travel down a few days early and them Grammy and Aunt Sarah will join us for the Embassy appointment and the flights home. Elizabeth will officially become a US citizen when we land from our connecting flight May 8!

As you can imagine, this is a HUGE answer to prayer and I want to thank you all for your continued support. I heard from the agency last night that I was very "lucky" because the other appointment they got yesterday was for May 14. I also think that Congressman Castle's office had something to do with it as well and I am going to give them a call this afternoon.

YAHOO, Elizabeth is coming home!!

Yeah!!!! I am soooooo happy! And it was so precious of the Lord to work out the timing so that you'd be home with your daughter on Mother's Day, the NEXT Sunday!! :)

We may never know why it took 10 months (almost) but we can trust that in the larger scope it was for Elizabeth's (at least) best. Hallelujah indeed! (That is the toughest word to spell -- but I can't think of another that will fit as well!)-Grammy
