Love knows no borders a heart just has a need. When we find each other, a family we will be.
Expecting from Guatemala
Welcome to Mari's page. We hope you will enjoy learning about our journey to Guatemala. Kurt and I are very excited to meet our baby girl, Marissa. We will try to keep you updated whenever there is news. Please feel free to send us comments. Thank you for your thoughts and prayers!
If it seems slow, do not despair, for these things will surely come to pass. Just be patient! They will not be overdue a single day. Habakkuk 2:3
Thanks, Mari, for this special post! This picture of Malaena-Sloan is so funny...it's the first time she sat alone. She's such an angel baby....I sure hope the adoptions re-open so you can experience this. Cheri
"We witness a miracle every time a child enters into life. But those who make their journey home across time and miles, growing within the hearts of those who wait to love them, are carried on the wings of destiny and placed among us by God's very own hands." ~Anonymous~
