PGN wouldn't accept our resubmit today
Apparently there is a new document that is now required that we obviously do not have because we have been in process for such a stinking long time!!! The document is an affidavit that says Sydney will be given the same benefits as a child born in the US!!! ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME?!?!? Ohhhhh pahlease people -we're not going through a living hell to bring our daughter HOME just to give her NOTHING!!! This will kill approximately 2 more weeks before we go back in. We have to have it notarized, send it to the state for authentication, then to Miami to have it sealed by them, then back to GC. Let's not even get into the additional costs for having things sent overnight!!
Honestly, if our agency had done all the things they were supposed to do, CORRECTLY, the first time around, this would be a NON-ISSUE!!! A non-issue because she would be here AT HOME where she belongs!!! Every hang-up that's happened has been because of the agency or it's employees!! NOT US!!!
How long will I have to be in Guatemala to foster at this rate? We were supposed to be back in by now. Mr. Slow and Thorough is not winning my vote just yet!!! Not even close!! I just cannot believe how things just keep popping up! It just goes from bad to worse every time we turn around. We've been KO'ed for a month as of today.
Alan fears that she'll never come home....
Oh and by the way -----
We have been out of PGN longer than we have been in.......
97 days out -
83 days in -
No wonder I'm about to lose my mind.

Kristi,
I feel so bad for you and your family and for little Sydney. This is getting ridiculous!! Try to hang in there. Think about getting well.
I'm still praying for you and will continue to pray until Sydney is home.

Kristi,
I can only imagine how frustrating this is for you. You are tired and sick because of all this stress. I PRAY that at least when you arrive in Guat you get to breathe and rest. (in between naps and feedings and running after a 10 month old!) I can remember when the Guat side would throw in all the "extra" docs that would make the case move along: an avidavit that I am heterosexual since I am single (I am, but how do you "prove" that?), the psych letter that I am sane and would stay sane (huh? going thru an international adoption is NUTS! BUT OH SO WORTH IT!!!!)
Hang in there, sister. Remember, you are a Dodge Viper! You want Sydney home so badly you'll get any piece of paper it takes to bring her home.
Rest my friend. God knows your plight. He is in control.
sending loves and hugs and prayers,

Roll Tide!
Ugh ... another setback !! But she WILL be home and once you get down there and start running the show it won't be long !!!
Kristi, I am so very sorry. You expect they will do what they are paid to. But I know how it goes.
Sergio just asked me for that SAME form when I was in GC. I have a template if you need it. I also have a great courier in Miami who does same day service very reasonably!! Email me if you want info. I'm sending big ol' hugs your way!
I'm surprised your agency didn't have you do that document from the very beginning. You began two or three months after me, and I was required to have it.
Either way, I'm very sorry. On the bright side, you will have that sweet girl in your arms soon.
