Dear Greekchatter friends,

Thank you so much for your incredible support. My husband was amazed when he saw all the wonderful notes above.

We received a call that the DHR told the lawyer that they had decided to place the girls with a grandmother who lives several thousand miles away, even though they had declared her unfit to take them a few months ago. Knowing her background, our lawyer is horrified but our hands are tied.

In adoption, things like this happen-especially when you are dealing with the DHR-but it's still awful to see children go from one bad situation to another and you can only pray that they'll be okay.

So--we pray that the 3 little girls will somehow thrive and also that some more little girls will come our way...someone we can love and cherish.

I'm so sorry carnation. I will be praying for your family as well as for the little girls.

Carnation,

Those little girls will grow up knowing that someone loved and cared for them enough to put up a fight. I admire you for your fortitude, generosity, and compassion. If the world had more parents like you, we would be living in a much better world.

God bless you and keep you in the palm of His hand.

How sad. I wish you and your husband the best of luck in the future. My mother's friend has been married for 19 years this June. They had been trying to adopt for years. They tried everything, even adopting Bosnian war orphans. Finally, 10 months ago, they adopted new born Amanda, and I have never seen parents more in love with a baby. It worked out for them, and I am sure it will work out for you. Just keep praying.

Any word yet.

Oops. I didn't realize you had posted Carnation. I'm soooooo sorry things didn't work out the way you had probably hoped. It's a tough situation, but I know you and your family will make it through the disappointment. I figure it's God's way of showing that he has something else instore for you...something better.
Thank you for showing us what love is all about.
Hootie
