MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM GUATEMALA!!

MY MOMMY REALLY THOUGHT I WAS READY FOR BED. I WAS READY TO PLAY WITH MOMMY.
I JUST LOVE MY TAG BLANKET!!! THANK YOU AGAIN SECRET BLOG PAL. YOU ARE THE BEST.
ME AMD MY MOMMY IN THE PARK THIS MORNING. MY MOMMY LOVES TO PUSH ME IN MY STROLLER IN THE PARK. SOMETIMES THE CHICKEN BUS SCARES ME. SO MY MOMMY HAS TO GET ME OUT OF THE STOLLER AND HOLD ME CLOSE TO HER.
WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO NOW MOMMY??? TELL ME, TELL ME PLEASE.
I AM SOOO SLEEPY NOW BUT I REALLY JUST WANT TO PLAY WITH MY MOMMY A LITTLE MORE. SHE IS SO MUCH FUN!!!

ME AND MY MOMMY WENT TO CHURCH TOGETHER THIS MORNING. SHE COULDN'T UNDERSTAND ANYTHING THE PREACHER WAS SAYING BUT I REALLY LIKED TO HEAR HIM TALKING. MY MOMMY DOESN'T UNDERSTAND SPANISH. AT LEAST WE GOT TO GO TO CHURCH ON CHRISTMAS EVE. MY MOMMY READ THE CHRISTMAS STORY TO ME THIS MORNING. I LOVE FOR HER TO READ TO ME. SHE IS SO FUNNY!!! I ALWAYS LAUGH WHEN SHE TALKS TO ME. MY MOMMY PUSHED ME AROUND THE PARK THIS MORNING UNTIL I GOT SOOOOO SLEEPY. I LOVE MY MOMMY SO MUCH. I REALLY WISH WE COULD BE TOGETHER FOREVER NOW!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM GUATEMALA. MAYA IS NAPPING NOW. I THINK I HAVE WORN HER OUT. SHE IS SO MUCH FUN!! CHRISTMAS IN GUATEMALA IS ONE HUGE PARTY. I MEAN A PARTY ALL NIGHT EVERY NIGHT. THE VERY LOUD MUSIC FINALLY STOPPED AT 1 AM AND MAYA WOKE UP AT 1:30 AM. SHE WAS READY TO PLAY. SO, WE PLAYED FOR ABOUT AN HOUR THEN SHE CRASHED AGAIN UNTIL 7 AM. SHE LOVED HER BATH THIS MORNING. I WAS ALREADY DRESSED AND SHE GOT ME TOTALLY SOAKED. I DIDN'T MIND AT ALL. SHE HAS ME WRAPPED AROUND HER LITTLE FINGER. BOY, THAT DIDN'T TAKE LONG.

WE HOPE THAT YOU ALL HAVE A WONDERFUL CHRISTMAS!!

    Ginger, you sounds so very very happy and Maya looks so happy and healthy, I can't believe the happyness that surrounds you right now. I am so glad that you were able to go to Church with her, what a lovely experience that is and you will be able to share that with her as she gets older.
    I have been thinking about you and I said a very special prayer for Maya today at the children's service at Church, I shared with people just how special she is.
    Happy Happy Christmas to you my dear friend Ginger and darling sweetheart Maya.
    Love Kate

    I get teary every post! She is such a complete cutie-pie!!!! How neat you went to church. We weren't allowed to leave the hotel, so we didn't get to do anything like that with her on our visit.

I am a single mother with a daughter from Guatemala. I brought her home on August 21st, 2007. I am loving every second of motherhood. Maya is the love of my life. I can't imagine life without her. I thank God everyday that she is home in my arms.
