PGN Decree!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hola! We got the call today that we received our PGN decree. So, what this means, in the eyes of the Guatemalan gov't we are his parents now. So thrilled, so excited so nervous..... Mostly so thankful. If all goes well, HOPEFULLY he will be home with us in 6 weeks or less. Birth mom still has to sign off one more time, then we get a new birth certificate issued. We will be listed as his parents and his last name will change to ours!!!!!!! Then, we get the embassy appointment and we are told when to travel to pick him up. As for my knitting.... YIKES... I'm not done yet with Baby Will Blanket #1. Then I have to finish his second blanket....this stuff MUST get done before we travel. Still need to finish up a baby blanket for a friend....so close on that. Maybe I'll get that one done tonight and then focus on Will's knitting. Got my June shipment of BMFA's Rocking Sock Club today. It is really gorgeous!!! The colorway is beautiful, and the pattern looks awesome. I have not even finished my "inside out" socks from my first club shipment. It will be awhile until I tackle the June kit project. Ok.... back to knitting!

School is DONE

Man oh man... have not posted forever. Just had to get everything done for my little class. I taught preschoolers (4-5 year olds). I had so much to finish up before their graduation.... and now it's done and I'm free! Woo Hoo. Free to knit like a fool! As an update to my previous posts..... All yarn pron arrived safe and sound. Good Stuff! I do believe that the Loopy Ewe was my fav. Their service was WONDERFUL. As for Baby Will's blanket #1... still OTN. Got sidetracked by school, and then had to rush and knit a blanket for a friend's baby who is due any second! That too is still OTN. Just a cotton blanket, double stranded on 13's. Pretty quick knit... hope to get it done in the next day or so. ABSOLUTELY no news on our son. It is so frustrating I can hardly stand it anymore. I know it will be worth it... but come on! There have been lots of ominous warnings from the DOS as well as the UN on Guatemalan adoptions. I just want to get my sweet boy home before a moratorium or complete shut down. I've met him, fed him, held him. He is our son and I hate thinking of him still down there and not here with us. We feel blessed that his foster mom seemed so loving and competent. But what it boils down to.... he is not here with his true mama and papa. That just kills us. Ok enough of my pity party. I'm on to knit like the wind!
