PINK!

We adopted Silas in March of 2006. In February of 2007, we received word that his birthsister was being placed for adoption.

Fast forward to 9 months later (hmm, the length of a pregancy!!) and we are traveling to Guatemala in exactly one week to pick her up!


Pink is the color of the official document from the US Embassy in Guatemala with the appointment date. We received our Pink document today, the same day we received in the mail our Polaroid photo of Maya at her second DNA appointment, verifying she is the same child that was placed in February.


We opened a bottle of champagne and all three toasted to Maya's soon homecoming (Silas had a sippy cup with water!) We took photos of Silas with the Polaroid! What a resemblance!
