OK, so this week we did not get our file out of PGN yet again, but we have made a little progress. After having no luck in having our file released on Mon., Tues., or Wed., our lawyers and Mark and I decided that we needed to meet the Sub-Attorney General for the second time. So on Thursday that is what we did. Despite the fact that the Sub-Attorney General, could not release our file right then and there, we were told that she would release it on Tues. or Wed. (as Monday is another stupid holiday here). Also our attorney was able to review the previo at the meeting so that they could work on fixing the previo while we wait for the file to be released. The ultimate goal will be to have the previo fixed by the time the file is released from PGN so that it can be resubmitted immediately to hopefully receive approval within a few weeks of its resubmission. We REALLY hope this is the case - yet we remain cautiously optimistic as we basically have been screwed by each step of our Guatemalan adoption process (minus pre-referral, of course, when we had some control).We will keep you posted on what occurs this coming week and thank everyone for their continued support - it is VERY, VERY appreciated.

P.S. - Mark will be traveling back down this coming Sunday and will begin to stay down here more than ever before as it is getting harder for us all to be apart. Look out everybody, you may have another Guatemalteco on your hands! I'm sure by the end of this we will be a 100% Guatemalteco family and have to assimilate to life back in the states. But let's hope that by that time OBAMA will be running things or at least elected (oops, I actually got un poco political). Nigh, nigh.

This sounds very promising! It is SO crazy that you had to go to PGN again. I guess it is a good thing because she will recognize your file when it comes to her and SIGN IT!! Oscar emailed me that he had made a "mistake" on his original price for me to stay at Santa Rosa, so it looks like we will be there :) I can't wait to give Max a squeeze.

I hope for once they follow thru, Good Luck. I'm glad you will all be together more, that was really tough on us and I was only there almost 8 months. You definetly will ahve to get back into the whole american thing, clean clean clean. Nice big wide aisles at the grocery stores with nice carts and not everyone in your way, and your own transpertation. Soon Soon, I Hope. Was she able to look at your file to see if there was anything else that might need to be fixed so they would stop kicking it out? Can't wait to hear any updates, I love it when your husband is there since he is the blogger. I couldn't have done it while I was still stuck there, too much angry frusterating stuff to write, and way too much stress!!!! hang in there.
Jen-
PRAY you have some "OUT" news soon. You guys sooo.. deserve it!
We are still getting adjusted but it is GOOD to be together and try and set up some "normalcy". Joshua has had a harder time than Rosalia (sharing his daddy). Say hello to Max and Ana Lu for us.
Bless you and your family-
Linda and Rosalia
Thinking about you all tonight! Would love to see some new pics of Mr. Max!! Happy to hear that Mark is going to be able to visit more...I am sure that will help keep you going! Hugs and prayers!
