Praying for good news on Monday!

As most of you know, Birthmother B, decided once again to raise her child.  Although, throughout our wonderful beach vacation this week I was a little bummed, I know the rollercoaster of emotions I'm experiencing is nothing compared to what she feels.  I pray that her and her baby are able to receive the support and love they need.  My heart goes out to her.  She really wants to give her baby a good family, as well as pursue her dreams, but she lacks the support for adoption from her family.  And unfortunately even though their opinions rule, she is the one raising this adorable baby.  I do see her great love for him, though, and know how amazing it is see a child grow.  I am happy she is blessed with that, even though it wasn't in "her timing."  As I have learned with my surprise baby, Boogie, God knows exactly what we need and exactly when to create another little person.

So, as before, we must move on as we continue the search for Baby M.  I will call him that for now, because as you know, I don't use real names on here, and he doesn't have a fitting nickname yet.  In case I haven't filled you in on the last two situations below didn't work out, the updates are in parenthesis:

Birthmother D - found information online in early June, lives in Kansas, Hispanic boy, due in July, waiting to here if this situation is still open (this situation didn't work out because the agency had a family emergency and did not hear back from them about this).

Birthmother E - given information June 17, lives in Texas, Caucasian boy, due in September, mother has been taking heroin but now on methadone, profile is being sent and she will look at it on June 24! (In this situation the birthmother picked another family)

But Monday our profile is being shown to two new birthmothers!!

Birthmother F - was emailed information from an agency on July 3, lives in Arizona, Caucasian boy, due in September, mother has been on different drugs however baby looks healthy so far.

Birthmother G - given information July 3, lives in Utah, African American boy, due next week!

I am in a rush to make sure those agencies get all the information they need.  Both of these situations are on the higher end of our budget, so hoping money works out.
