Pink

I'm Pink.




This is a GREAT thing. This means that I got my pink slip today from the US Embassy in Guatemala. I never thought I would be ecstatic over a "pink slip", but I am. The pink slip is a notice of my visa appointment on Friday, 3/28 at 8:00 AM with Abby. This is where our government interviews me and approves my adoption from the US standpoint. Abby will get her visa to come to the US a few days after the appointment, and we will be a family. I will re-adopt her when I come back to the US and change her name officially to Abby Elena. I can't believe I am at the end of the road, and Abby will be my daughter officially in just 2 weeks. It is surreal. I have never been this happy, and I can't wait to be with my daughter.

Some friends are having a baby shower for me tomorrow. It is so nice to be able to share this great news with friends and family. What a great way to start a weekend!

A shower sounds like good fun. It won't be long now!
