The Return of Baby Girl
Our little girl has found her way back to us. Last night we spoke with our adoption coordinator (while at our New Years Party! While everyone else is out at a party she is making adoption calls!). The news was totally unexpected, I originally thought she was calling to tell us about a new referal, turns out she was calling to tell us baby girl's adoption is proceeding and that she is now in the pastors care! What a shock and a wonderful way to start the New Year! We have new pictures. We will wait to share until we are through court. We are a bit saddened that the inability of the birth relatives to care for her has not allowed us to be her parents, it really highlights the statement that adoption is not without someone's loss, and that is truely apparent here, not only has she lost her birth mother and father, but relatives as well. My heart hurts for her.

Wow. I came over here after reading your comment on my blog and remembered what had happened with your little girl. The saw this post! Wow, what a roller coaster. I can't imagine how I would have felt if they had told us we could have T's referral back. Elated. But shocked. And add in birth family feelings....
I want to say congratulations though. Because at least your adoption is GOING somewhere!!!

This little girl really must be "your" baby! It was meant to be that you bring her home. Look forward to following along in your journey. Do you have an estimate on your travel time yet?
