Return Trip to Guatemala!

Three weeks have come and gone since our last trip to see our girls. There is not a moment that goes by, that our girls are not in our heart, thoughts and prayers. Knowing that we are going back this weekend for Mother's Day is what has gotten us through these past couple of weeks.

We were really excited to receive an email from Claudia (our foster mother) this past week letting us know that the girls and Claudia's family were doing well. Claudia told us that Hannah talked about her birthday party and cake for an entire week. Haley is doing well and is smiling every moment of the day! We are so blessed to have such a wonderful foster mother taking care of our girls.

We have been really busy this week trying to get ready for our trip this weekend, and as a result, we haven't been able to update the blog recently. Below, we have added some additional pictures of Hannah and Haley during Hannah's 3rd birthday party! Being able to hold our girls in our arms for the first time and celebrate Hannah's birthday with her was a feeling that words could never express.



Continued thanks to all of our family and friends who continue to keep our girls in your thoughts and prayers. We are looking forward to sharing new pictures and an update from our second trip to Guatemala next weekend!

God bless
