Not good enough

Wow- 2 posts in one day but I have to get this out. We were turned down by yet another birthmom- the one in Denver. I told Brian that we must not be good enough because we are on our what seems like 20th birthmom. I don't know how people do multiple adoptions in the United States. There are so many children that need to be adopted and have a good home yet they make the process almost unbearable.

I found this poem and it is something that helps keep me going.

Not flesh of my flesh,
Nor bone of my bone,
But still, miraculously my own.
Never forget for a single minute,
You didn't grow under my heart,
But in it.

Patience

It is very hard to have patience!! I'm trying to keep myself busy and do a lot because I know when we have a baby that I won't be able to go and do as I please.

We have 2 birthmom's right now and we are waiting for a answer from both. No, we are not getting 2 kids at the same time. Our agency is allowing us to be in 2 places at once so we are upping our odds. Hopefully we will have a answer by late today or early next week from the birthmom here in Denver and I have no idea when the birthmom from Vegas will make her decision.

Please remember and sign up for the Walk to Remember!! We are getting close to the event and everything is coming together.
