WE ARE IN PGN!!! YAHOOOOOOOOO

Yep, you heard it all the way from here..............
WE ARE IN PGN!
A lot of people have been asking what is PGN..........well, here is the description from the Department of State;
The PGN scrutinizes the adoption case for signs of fraud or irregularities before providing its approval of the adoption. Upon receiving PGN approval, the adoptive parents in the U.S. are legally responsible for their child(ren). The attorney obtains final approval from the Guatemalan birth mother and then requests a birth certificate listing the adoptive parents as the parents of the adopted child.
PGN stands for Procuradoria General de la Nacion. Procuradoria is a Spanish term that is used in Central America. Its relative to jurisprudence in Guatemala.
So, lets keep on thinking positive, that PGN will be kind to us and let us out (approve us) real quick, so our Anna will come home.
Today Margaret called our lawyer and spoke with him. He was soo excited that we got Pre-Approval so quick, "it's a miracle" he just kept on saying that..........it was cute. I told him, that I am sure our congressman had something to do with it = Thanks Mr. Congressman! He then told me that we were in PGN, I was so surprised to hear that because I knew he had other paper work to get together, before turning our folder into PGN. He just picked up our folder early this morning from the US Embassy and it's already in PGN. Our lawyer is soo GREAT! He worked over the weekend, to check all our documents and made sure we had everything for PGN.
Just want to Thank everyone for their support! We are soo blessed to have such great friends and family. Thank you!
