Adoption

Bad news, but good news

So I don't know if any of you guys remember, but we were contacted by a friend in early June about a potential match. Got the news last night that the expectant parents decided to go ahead and parent. I guess in a way it's not great news for us, but I am really deeply happy for them :-)

I have never met the expectant mom, but I feel like I know her through my friend. She was under a great deal of pressure to abort initially, and it was just a very difficult situation for her. I am so glad that things are working out for them in a way that enables them to parent. I was very hopeful, but I never really felt like he was meant to be ours, if that makes any sense? But the mom sounds like a really amazing lady from everything my friend says, so I'm really excited for them!

I am still painting the other room for whenever our next LO decides to arrive. I plan to be ready when God sends him/her our way! Just wanted to update you guys. Thanks for listening and hope you ladies have a great day.

  • I am sorry to hear that was not the one. God has the right one in his plans for you. Hang in there.
