we're here!!!
We arrived here in Guatemala tonight around 8:00 pm. We got into the hotel right before nine, and Jorge and my dear friend Lou Lynn and her precious babe Essie were here to greet us! We had such a great time chatting with them. Then came the foster mom, Norma, and her two sisters with our forever baby, Kella Hope. She was absolutely beautiful, and a little more grown up. It is so surreal that we are finally getting to bring her home after this long process. The handoff was a bit harder on baby Kella than we had predicted. She has a sense for what was going on. She is sound asleep in her bed now. We are all tired, so pictures will come tomorrow!!!

My Kindreds,
It was such an honor to be there with you as your precious daughter was handed to you..... It was such a special moment. You guys are fabulous, and I am so BLESSED that God sent you all to me. I really do love you all.
I am rejoicing this morning, knowing that your little angel is with you...Praying that she slept through just fine and that her eyes will fix upon her mama this morning and KNOW! Remember, those tears and anxieties of leaving Norma are good. Praying that the "sorrow will last gor a night, but joy will come in the morning". Much love to all of you...looking forward to seeing her in your arms.
Kindred Klan - we're so excited for you that precious Kella is finally where she belongs!!!! I hope you had a sweet night of sleep. My heart breaks for Norma - I know she loves Kella and has cared for her so well. That is so hard. May she be blessed with knowing that Kella is so loved by her wonderful forever family!!!! We are offering up sweet praises to God for you all! We'll be praying for Kella's transition. Can't wait to see pictures!!!!!!! Love you, Irene

Just got home on the "party bus" and are SO beyond thrilled that you are with your sweet baby girl. Janae said she wants a baby too!
Rejoicing that you are finally with her forever. Can't wait to give her a squeeze:) Love to all!
Hi mom and dad! This is Chloe. I miss you! How is Kella doing this morning? I can't wait to see her and all of you on Thursday! Can I hold her then? I love you
As we were looking at sweet Kella's picture, we were rejoicing that you are finally bringing her home to forever be with your amazing family. Can't wait to meet Kella and see new pictures. Give her lots of hugs and kisses for us. I will pray that the transition for Kella will go smoothly. Love you, Annetta
What an excited evening for all of you and what a blessing to have dear friends with you who have taken the same path. God is good. I'm sure it was hard for Norma to finally place Kella into her "forever mama's" arms for good - what a needed blessing she has been for precious Kella. Find comfort knowing that she has taken care of Kella for this specific purpose, and God will also take care of her. We are so anxious to see you all and pray details work out smoothly over the next couple days. Girls are doing great! We love you!
What a miracle!!! We are so excited for all of you, especially Kella!! I am sure she will fit right in. Just know that we are praying and thinking of you all. Can't wait to see her in the flesh. One thing is for sure...I am sure she is in "pink" from head to toe!! Ha Love to you all.
What an exciting evening and what a blessing to have had friends with you who have traveled the same path. God is good. I'm sure it was hard for Norma to finally place Kella in her "forever mama's" arms for good - what a needed blessing she has been for precious Kella. Take comfort in knowing that she has taken care of Kella for this specific purpose and God will also take care of her. We are praying that paperwork will move along smoothly over the next couple days and you will finally be able to bring her HOME! Girls are doing GREAT!
