Phone Home, or Home Phoning!



Since our last update we were able to speak on the phone with Mason’s foster mother. She has been caring for children for many years. Often she takes care of two, but right now just has Mason. We were able to get to know her a little and thank her for caring for our son.

We learned some more about him and got some peace by knowing that he is well cared for. She reassured us that she would care for him well until we are able to come for him. He is sleeping and eating well. He is now 11 weeks old and growing. She said she sings to him and that he’s around a lot of family. He has a foster father, brother and two sisters, plus aunts, uncles and grandparents. He is easy going and doesn’t let much bother him. As first time parents, we hope this demeanor continues! :)

We will be getting a new update and pictures in the next two weeks. Of course we are very excited to see them and find out when we can travel to visit. We are also hoping that a more “official” statement will be made about continuing Guatemalan adoptions. What we have seen lately looks positive but we are still holding our breath.
