Past, Present, and Future

Starting the blog four weeks into the adoption process means that there's so much story to tell, but I can't see waiting until it's all written down to finally get to where we are right now. So, here's a current update from Julia that went out by email. I promise to come back and tell more of the past at sometime in the future, but for right now here's the present.

Some background info: We've been waiting for a few days to hear if we're the family that birth mother "Marsha" chooses. We're hoping she likes us, and there's some urgency because the baby is due April 1st. "Mary" is our contact at the placement agency. Below is what Julia has written.


Just got off the phone with Mary.
breathing.
still no solid answer
However, i do have an update.
She talked to Marsha this afternoon and Marsha said that her parents are coming in town this weekend and she woudl like to go over our letter with her parents.  If her parents feel good about it, she would like her parents to contact us.
So, we don't have an answer, but I feel so grateful that her parents are helping her.  And i do hope they would like to meet us.


Mary says that she feels like Marsha will contact her back on Monday, though she doesn't want to promise this to me.  She did communicate that Marsha came to them initially with some urgency and she feels like that is still present.


So, still no news of if this is a definite 'GO!' or not.
But I suppose all will reveal itself in time.
And there is always more patience to learn.


Love you all so much.  I'm so glad we have such a close-knit group to take this ride with.
