Feliz Ano Novo!

Oi Bebes,

Everynight before I go to bed I pray for you guys and for all the children caught up situations such as ours. I hope that in 2009 things will be different but for now I don't have anything new to report. It's all still the same. Nothing is happening between my country and yours except that a bunch of grown-ups cannot seem to work out some wording on a letter which means nothing in the bigger scheme of things. I am very upset over this. I know you kids need a loving family, a place to call home, to grow and learn, to share and love. If I could change it in a minute I would, for all the orphans in the world but I can't. I know that your country is doing what they feel is the right thing regarding the wording and I don't see why my country can't just say "OK Brasil, have it your way". Sometimes adults are not that smart. To have children in need and have adults in want (so to speak) and not put them together to live happily ever after just doesn't make any sense to me.

So for now, as always talk to God and ask him for favors, ask him for a family and a stable loving environment, He'll give it to you I'm sure, one way or another...
