Moving On With The Door Shut
It’s been a week since we found out the news that we are more than likely not getting the little baby girl we were waiting for. I say more than likely because the mother is known for changing her mind a lot, and well, God can do whatever He wants! There are two reasons Bart and I created this blog…

It’s only been a week since we last posted with the news that the birth mother had decided to keep her little girl. And in that week, so much has happened… again, all at once.
I never once lost hope that we would someday have a baby. I did however wonder when it would happen. I just assumed that we would have to wait a while and maybe even pursue other avenues. And at the same time, I still grieved over the little girl that I thought we would have here with us in our home right now. So even thinking about the future and another baby, didn’t exactly feel right.
Then… before...

THIS WHOLE STORY started 2 weeks ago. But it really starts officially today, April 10, 2009 at 2:00PM. The first of the big appoinents with our attorney.
It’s now 2:15pm…Our attorney is a bit behind. But he’s a long time family friend so we’ll let it pass. KIDDING – Actually Melissa and I wouldn’t want any other attorney working with us on this…So we’ll wait as long as it takes.
It’s taking nerves of steel as Melissa and I are sitting in the conference room at our attorneys office.
And I should mention we DON’T have nerves of steel…nope…
2:20PM…Please...
