Mandie and Izzie had their Visa appointment today. Everything went fine, and as expected. Myriam, or interpreter, will pick up the Visa on Monday...and then get it to Mandie on Tuesday before she flies home.
It almost doesn't seem real. We're almost done. Isabella is almost home, and our family is almost complete. God has been so good to us. If you had told either of us a couple of years ago that we would be going through what we did this past year, we would have thought you were crazy. God's ways are higher than ours, and we do not always understand where He's leading us. But, if we'll just take that step and follow where He's leading...we'll always come out the other end in a much much better place.
We will miss Guatemala very much. The people that we've met there are amazing. We couldn't have made it without some of those people helping us (even though they may not have known they were) get through the long wait. We will miss the food. Antigua is an awesome place, and the food is amazing. Best hot chocolate and coffee in the World. Yes....we will miss Guatemala. But, we'll be back soon...
Keep praying for us. We still have a few more days until Mandie and Izzie are safe, on the ground in the good old United States. And then...we will need continued prayer that we will raise Isabella in the way that God wants us to.
Thanks everybody!!!
