Hey ladies. Sorry I didn't get a chance to update sooner, we got home late on Sunday night (B-mom's town is 3 hours away) and yesterday I was swamped. Things went well! We really like her. She seems honestly very sweet. Her mother couldn't come (big bummer since her mom is a huge part of this and we really wanted to meet her) but we sat and talked for 3 hours. When we told her about what we have gone through, all of us teared up, including the attorney. She brought her 1 yo daughter with her...so unbelievably cute! and the baby loved me.
She said towards the end that she did not want to meet any of the other couples she was scheduled to meet with. She had met with 3, including us, and she said it was between us and another couple. She has other family members who she wants to meet us...her mom, mom's fiancee, so she said she is still a few weeks away from any decision. Since we are going to be in town visiting friends anyway next weekend, we asked her if she had plans for the 4th and if she wanted to hang out with us and hopefully bring her mom. She said yes, so I am supposed to call her and try to set stuff up. She's not meeting again with the other couple until July 17th, as that's when one of her family members is coming back into town. So I am guessing (hoping) we will get together then as well.
According to the attorney, it went really well and she said in her email to me yesterday that she thinks there is a strong chance she will pick us. We are not getting our hopes up though, as much as we like her and as well as it seemed to go. You never know with these things and we have had our hearts broken way too many times, so we are staying cautious.
Thoughts & prayers are very much needed & so very appreciated right now.
