We are back from visiting Sofia. OMG!!!!!! She is amazing in every way. First of all, she loves her brother Evan like you would not believe. He can make her laugh at the drop of a hat. She came to me right away, but she is getting older and had times when she would just stare into space and then cry. Duh!!!! Can you imagine how she feels missing the only mother she knows. Although she knows me as mami, Mayra is her mami right now. It is heartbreaking what the government there is doing to these children who realistically could be home at a very young age, but to prove their political point, use our babies as pawns. Ok, enough of my anti-Guatemala policy. Sofia loved me up and felt most comfortable in my arms. I was her safe person. When ever she got nervous she came to me. Of course, she never really was more than 3 feet away from me or else she would cry. Yes, it made me feel special, but posed somewhat of a problem when I had to pee. I am now a pro at peeing with a 15 month old on my lap. She is beautiful beyond compare, as you can see!! We love her more every moment and cannot wait to bring her home. Enjoy the pictures!!!
