Here's something that doesn't happen very often - Guatadopt introducing a new writer. But that's just what I'm doing here...
For some time, it's been painfully apparent that Kelly and myself have been lacking in time, energy, whatever. At the same time, our hopes that the in-process debacle would come to a rational end proved wrong.
With that as the background I welcome Ann Roth to the team. Ann is the proud mom of one Guatemalteca. Importantly, Ann (and her hubbie dude Dave) also are working furiously to bring home their son.
It is not often that I would refer to a child still in-process as being the PAP's "son", but in this case the dedication and determination I've seen from Ann for a few years now is worthy of an exception.
Ann is a leader within the Guatemala900 and I look forward to bringing us back into our activist roots to help them with their efforts. She is a busy mom so be patient, comments will get approved...
Welcome aboard Ann!
Posted by Kevin at June 11, 2010 04:06 PMWoo hoo! Ann rocks! I am so looking forward to hearing more from her on here. If anyone has the most up to date and complete perspective on what's going on down there, it's Ann!

And, thanks, Guatadopt, for always keeping us well informed on GT issues. We appreciate all of your hard work and your dedication to both the children and families. -Sharon
