This is the story of my journey to bring Willow home from Guatemala. I am now mom to two daughters: Lily (5) who was born in China and Willow (2).

Feliz Navidad!

All offices are closed in Guatemala this week, so there will be no developments on the birth certificate until next week some time. Sandra sent an email this afternoon telling me that Willow had a happy Christmas and received many presents, was very happy, and is in a home filled with love and peace while she waits for me. Check out these big-girl pig tails: I sent this T-Shirt in her last care-package (I do believe she has my thighs):
That's right - kisses not biting:
What's interesting about this one, is that I had recently decided to bring Lily's doll stroller on our trip to Guatemala because I thought Willow would be old enough to LOVE pushing it around the hotel. Lily was about this age when we bought her stroller at the American Girl store in Chicago and she had a blast hauling her dolls all over in it - she still does actually. Anyway - now there's no doubt Willow will love her stroller. I sent this dress and the little purple mary janes down too. I think they're SO cute! I sent the pink, footless leggings to go with this dress, but I guess they didn't "get" my style.
