We had a very rough start to our trip. I did not even think Philip was going to be able to come with me. He started getting sick at 9pm the night before we left and didn't stop until lastnight, 24 hours later. We had to be up at 5am to drive 4 hours to Miami and then get on the plane to Guatemala. I literally had to stop 4 times on the side of the road because he was sick. I told him before we left I could go by myself but there was no way he was going to miss this trip. I admire his strength to go because I am not sure how he did it being so sick. Finally, he is feeling better today. We think he may of had food poisioning.
Devin was placed in our arms lastnight for good. It is an amazing feeling. It was very tough for his foster mother but I thought she did pretty good considering the circumstances. She is a very strong lady. Devin has been such a trooper. He is such a happy baby. He slept through the night and he has not been fussy at all! I really think it helped visiting him. He seems really comfortable with us.
We had our Embassy appointment today and everything went well. We pick up Devin's visa tomorrow. When he touches down in the U.S. he will oficially be a U.S. citizen. WOHOO!!!
When we get home I will post some pictures of our trip and our little Guatemalan Prince....
Love,
Kelly
