For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for wholeness and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. (Jer 29:11)

Not the baby for us

We were called yesterday morning and told that the baby boy was born Saturday and he was healthy. The birth mother said she decided to keep him and I believe she is stable enough to offer him a good home.  We are saddened by our loss of the baby we thought was for us, but this is not a tragedy, this baby will be loved and cared for by it's mother.  We are back on the waiting list.  The last two matches happened very quickly; this match was only a day after the agency received our photo books. We are praying that God would allow us to be matched and placed quickly so we do not need to update our entire home study, which is time consuming and expensive.  We have until mid September before we will need to start the process of updating since we completed it early October last year.  We trust that God has a specific baby for us that really needs a family and we will see what He brings to us in the weeks ahead.
