Last week, the mama that we were matched with for our adoption changed her mind. She chose to keep her baby, in adoption-speak, chose to parent her baby.
Honestly, our family is thrilled for her. This was definitely one of those grey area adoptions. We would much rather give her a million dollars than take her baby if only we had that kind of money to share.
So we're back in the pool, waiting for a new match.

Thanks for the update-- I will be thinking of you "back in the pool."
It sounds like you are reconciled to her decision and have found peace. Bless you.
Bravo to you for this - and many thanks.
I am happy for that mama, that she feels she has found that she can parent.
I am also sorry for your loss, because it does seem to me that it is a loss, even though it was never a have.
Such a world of mixed emotions.
That was very nice of you...& am glad she decided to keep her child. It is well, the baby that is destined to be yours would surely come.
Thanks everyone. I really cherish your warm thoughts both for me and my family and this mama and hers.
