Middle of the week and no new news!!

Well, it is the middle of the week. Our contact went down on Monday and has had no luck finding anything out on our case. It has been very disappointing to get emails from her with no new news. She was really the last hope we had when it comes to people that we personally know.

We have one option left and although it isn't the best alternative for us as it is going to def. cost more money, we have to try it before giving up completely. At least if we try, we will know where we stand. If we give up now without knowing, we will always wonder. I do have a hard time believing that we were brought this far to not bring him home, but as days have turned in to weeks and now months since we were issued approval, it seems more possible that that is indeed the case. My heart aches and we are trying very hard to remain strong. I know that I haven't had the morning sickness this time, although I have been pretty sick to my stomach, and I know that I haven't gained pregnancy weight,(i know, i didn't gain with Alex) although I have gained more weight from stress eating. I have experienced many things that were the same as Alex's pregnancy and many that were different. There were similar things in Callum's adoption and different. The one thing that is the same is that we would like to have the joy of having another child and I just pray that it really does get to happen.

We got word today that Gareth's parents are coming at the end of April. We are so excited that we now have something positive to look forward to. We haven't told the kids and don't think that we will until they are about to come. We will never hear the end of "when are they coming?" if we tell them now:0)

Please continue to keep our whole adoption situation in your prayers!!!! Please pray for our strength. That we will be able to get answers which ever way we are supposed to go. Please pray for the beautiful little boy that is waiting to be loved and held. That he is being taken care of. Please pray for our family. Alex and Callum. Alex keeps talking about her brother and she just doesn't understand that it might not happen. Please pray that we are able to find trustworthy people to try and help us!!
