Patience...............and Planning ahead.

Okay, so Margaret's patience are definitely being put through the test these days. Every time Margaret's cell phone rings.............her first thought - IT'S EDWIN WITH GREAT NEWS! But it's not. This morning Margaret's cell phone was non stop ringing, and it wasn't Edwin. While in Guatemala visiting, while we were all at Edwin's house - he asked us how we wanted to be notified of being out of PGN. Quite a few of us said Email, BUT Margaret said - No Way, "when we are out of PGN, you best be busting at the seams and just dying to call me with the great news". I then told Edwin that he best be dialing my number while he is walking out of PGN to tell us the GREAT news". Edwin just laughed, Com'on now, with that great news, why would we want to wait to get an email.........when a phone call is just sooo soo quicker! So lets keep our fingers crossed and some really good prays, that the phone will ring this week with some GREAT news of us being out of PGN.

Margaret even has Peter saying his prayers, before he goes to bed - so Anna comes home quicker. It's the cutest thing to see. Last night mommy let him do it himself (without repeating what mommy said) and he was soo soo cute. And he always ends it by giving mommy a kiss and hug. He's such a cutie pie.

Today Margaret called Orchid Labs (yes, this is Margaret planning ahead), and paid for our 2nd DNA test. This is what gets done once out of PGN. The 2nd DNA test confirms that Anna is the same baby that started the adoption in the beginning. I figured I would have it paid for, so when Edwin gets our folder out of PGN he won't have to wait for Margaret to do the payment to get the DNA test done, it's already paid for. The woman at the Labs, that it was a great idea.

So please continue to pray, wish, fingers crossed - whatever works for you these days, that Anna is out of PGN now! so that she can come home real soon.

Thanks for your support!
