All Is Well

Everything is still going well with our adoption match. Our social worker called the other day with an update and told us some very positive things.

The potential birth parents, D & D, are still confident in their decision. The expectant mom and baby are doing well (but no signs of labor yet). They also had a couple more requests, which we consider to be a good sign. First, they would like us to be at the hospital during the birth and don't mind seeing and meeting us there. (Originally, they didn't want to meet at all and were interested in a closed adoption with no contact.) Second, they have decided they would like pictures and letters once per year.

I was so glad to hear some encouraging news right before the holidays. It really seems like things are coming together. The potential birth parents are thinking their adoption plan through and figuring out what they want. Everything just feels right. I sure hope that it all works out! This situation is absolutely perfect for us, and this is the only time in our 2 year adoption journey when we can say that.

Maybe our dreams of becoming parents will finally come true.
