still pondering the complexity of our current situation. we FINALLY heard back from the adoption agency last night. we are one of three couples who have been chosen by the expectant couple i wrote about on Feb 1st to meet in person. we will meet them next Tuesday. so humbling. a little nerve wrecking. we are steadfast in our desire to "just be ourselves" for this "first date", and trust that if it's meant to be, there will be a connection. out of our hands, out of our control. SO HARD. of course we wish and hope and pray that they will choose us, that we'll make a love connection, that this couple will decide we are the right ones to entrust their baby with, to raise and love and have as our own. we are longing for that to happen. LONGING. and then, i think about the other two "moms-to-be" that are hoping for the exact same thing. two of us are not getting the rose. two of us are going home, broken hearted, with empty arms. again.
this is one of those most tangible times we ask for and cling to the peace that passes all understanding.
