We have some BAD news!

We just found out that our attorney in Guatemala has a lot of birthmother interviews that are not completed and ours is one of them. We also found out that if we don't have the interview completed by August 31, then the Guatemala government will require Madison to be moved from her foster home and into an orphanage. The Government will no longer recognize the use of foster families and will require all children put up for adoption to be in orphanages.
We are soooo upset by this news and it breaks my heart to think of Madison going from her loving foster home to an orphanage.

We are trying our best to not lose faith but we can't help but feel that all of our prayers (and yours included) have gone unanswered. We know in our heads that this is not true and that God answers all prayers (just sometimes not the way we want him too) but honestly our hearts are broken and feel like our prayers have gone unanswered. I feel that I need God to hit me on the head with something and say "hey this is what I am doing with your case and trust me Madison is ok".

We are just so angry at our attonery and can't understand how he can let all of the children he is representing suffer for his laziness. (At least we feel he has been lazy).
We are at a loss as to what to do next and what to pray anymore. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.


Madison, Mommy and Daddy love you and are doing everything we can to get you home.

We ask that you also pray for the other families our attorney represents, there are at least 19 (we think) other families with our adoption agency that he is working with.

I am so sorry to hear this! I keep hoping to come to your web page and read some good news saying that you get to bring your baby home. I feel like flying down there myself and escorting that attorney to every appointment necessary. Praying for some movement in your case and that she is not put in a strange place. Hang in there...
