We are NOT out of PGN yet---which would be the HAPPIEST news I could post but this report has me smiling and being about to breath. I feel like the weight of the world has been lifted! We are going to get this baby girl home! Today is Jay's 6th birthday. We are going to busy celebrating Jay today and I will post pictures later!
Here is the report.

Ortega/Hague Update
Guatemalan papers are reporting that committees of Congress met yesterday on the adoption law. This was NOT the vote on the ammendments. But based on these reports, Guatemala will postpone implementing the Hague until April 1, 2008 in order to better coincide with the US's likely ratification date. Interestingly, one paper quotes US Consul General John Lowell as saying this is unnecessary.
In addition, one paper is reporting that the Ortega Law's effective date will be bumped back to April 1 as well. One story also mentions that one ammendment to be voted on is to permit singles to adopt.
Is that a sigh of relief I hear?
Once again, this all coming from Guatemalan papers.
How old is Emma today?
