Packed and Ready to Fly– 2/21/2006
Posted by: Betsy on: February 21, 2006
Well, I’m as nervous as a jitter bug but as happy as a clam… about the trip to meet and bring Savanna home, that is.
I leave 2/22 at 10a.m. and arrive in Guat at 8:20 p.m. I have a two hour lay over in TX. I am looking forward to meeting Savanna and her foster [...]

Posted by: Betsy on: February 14, 2006
I just received the call (on Valentine’s Day) that PINK was submitted yesterday afternoon. I will find out tomorrow afternoon when I travel. This time I was so happy that I cried.
There is hope my friends in internet land. Hang tight and your time will come too. I’ve never been on such a roller coaster ride!
Stacy and [...]

I wish I had something happy to report. I heard today that the attorney was not able to submit for PINK on 2/6, or all of last week, because of U.S. Embassy problems. The lines are too long. I have NO idea how much longer it will take before I get PINK. I was assured that the attorney was [...]
Happy 6th Month Birthday– 2/9/2006
Posted by: Betsy on: February 9, 2006
Happy birthday Savanna. Your mom is very close to meeting you. Last week-end I packed all of your things, minus a few onsies for the trip to Guatemala. I can’t believe how much room all of your stuff takes up in my suitcase. And, it took me all day to pack. Things in my life [...]
Dear Foster Mother, Aura– 2/8/2006
Posted by: Betsy on: February 8, 2006
Dear Aura,
I will never be able to thank you enough for giving my little Savanna all the loving care she needed in her first happy home. The bond of love and trust that you two experienced will help Savanna accept the love I give her so we can establish the same kind of relationship built [...]
Birth Certificate Changed– 2/3/2006
Posted by: Betsy on: February 3, 2006
Well, the process is movin’ along… at a snail’s pace. The attorney picked up the new birth certificate today (2/2/06). It took 11 days to get the new BC. The attorney will submit for “PINK” on Monday, 2/6, but I’ll not find out about my Embassy appointment until 2/9, my dear Savanna’s 6 month birthday. So, it seems [...]

Picture me dancing and shouting the following: Hip hip hooray! Woo Hooooo! Yippeeee! Glory hallelujah! Yay baby, yay baby, yay baby! It doesn’t get any better than this! I’ve been waiting for THIS day for MONTHS! So completely overjoyed that I’m about to piss on myself.
Okay, details…. my Sister, Karen, and I will fly to Guatemala on [...]
Foster Mother Questions– 2/1/2006
Posted by: Betsy on: February 1, 2006
I found out today that Savanna’s foster mother’s name is Aura Marina. I’ve have been thinking, thinking, and thinking about all the questions I would like to ask her. Ready? Here goes…
Living Environment
How old was Savanna when she came to live with you? Were there other children in the home with her? If so, what games did [...]
