It's time for Paulo's birth certificate

We just received the good news that Paulo's file was submitted to RENAP so that he can obtain a new birth certificate. His new birth certificate will have Harris as his last name...very cool! The time frame for issuance can range from days to months, so we will just see what the Good Lord has planned. As we think back on our journey a year ago this week, the idea of adoption had not completely captured our hearts. It was the third week of December that we were stirred by God in a powerful way to do something extraordinary. And on a few days notice, we flew to Guatemala to "get in the game." To summarize, we have come a long way in a year and are privileged to still be "in the game" given the challenges of this adoption. God has been faithful to us and we give Him all of the credit...we certainly could not have come this far through our own efforts. There is something bigger than us going on here.
