HAPPY 9 MONTHS!!!!


MY LITTLE PRINCESS IS NINE MONTHS OLD TODAY. OH HOW I WISH I WAS THERE WITH HER. I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT SHE IS ALREADY NINE MONTHS. I REALLY THOUGHT THAT I WOULD HAVE HER IN MY ARMS BY NOW. I HAVE TO ADMIT THAT I AM GROWING VERY WEARY. I AM SO TIRED!!! I LOVE MAYA WITH ALL MY HEART BUT THERE COMES A TIME THAT YOU JUST HAVE TO FACE REALITY. MY REALITY IS THAT MAYA MAY NEVER COME HOME. I HAVE E-MAILED MY AGENCY DIRECTOR TO TRY AND FIND OUT WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON. I JUST REALLY NEED SOME ANSWERS. I NEED THE ANSWERS TO BE THE TRUTH. I AM SO SICK OF LIARS!!! BIG THANKS TO EVERYONE AND ALL THE ENCOURAGING WORDS.


MAYA, MOMMY IS DOING EVERYTHING THAT I KNOW TO DO TO GET YOU HOME, WHERE YOU BELONG!!! PLEASE KNOW THAT I LOVE YOU SO MUCH. YOU ARE MY ENTIRE LIFE.

    Ginger, your sweet baby is going to come home to her mommy where she belongs! I am so proud of you for hanging in there through this nightmare. You are amazing!

    Ginger, I just KNOW that this will be worked out and Maya will be home! You are so strong, and I know you're not giving up now.

    Ginger,
    This is so unfair I can't even believe it. You have endured so much. You are the strongest person I know, even though I know you don't feel like it.
    You have to keep fighting for Maya. Don't give up now. Your baby is counting on you.
    I am praying everyday for you to get good news. I so hope your agency is bending over backwards to get this completed. THEY BETTER!!!
    I agree that you should definitely call your representative. I know you are tired but sometimes all it takes is the right person. You must try everything. I have heard of others who were helped greatly by their representatives.
    Thank goodness you are OUT of PGN, or you could be stuck in investigation for months. That is a positive.
    Please have hope and faith. This is going to get DONE!!!! Maya is yours!!! You have come this far,
    HANG IN THERE!!!

    I'm sure you are getting lots of advice. I wonder if it would help to actually go to the US Embassy in Guatemala and try to take care of this yourself. I know that you need the paperwork that the attorney has....I don't know...just trying to think of something.

    Happy 9 months Maya!!!!
