Today 's Theme for FFF is Friend;s. We went to the states in august and reunited with
Anita and Claire who we met in Mexico originally, shared the same adoption agency and didnot know, then we met again in Guatemala, when Anita was visiting Claire and I was waiting with Isabella until the paper work was done. We speak on the phone alot, and Anita has proven to be a good friend, although she lives far away.

Favorite Foto Friday #57 Hope

This week for our Favorite Foto Friday is Hope,
being that Sarah has been without electrizity and other things because of hurricane Ike, that made its way all the way to Louisville Kentucky, as well as my dear friend Anita, who is also going through being without stuff

and boy do I know what that is like with the many hurricanes that we have in Mexico.
brings me to that wonderful time when i needed so much hope.
It hadn't been a year that my father and my dog papito died. they died 2 weeks apart 4 years ago around this time. it was july 2005 and i was waiting for my referral. we had other things to think about during this time because hurricane Emily was here in Playa del Carmen.
i spent the hurricane alone in my closet of my room, with candles, and prayed my little one would come into my life.





Here is Isabella with her foster mom Carmen

Me with Isabella the morning after she arrived
then grandma came to see my beloved
and here is the closet I was in during the hurricane, and the very next day my prayers were answered with a referral picture that was sent to me.
