Hey Em and Kimmise, can I climb into your boat of dispair and wallow with you? We have been waiting for two full years. I simply can't believe that that much time has ticked by and yet we are still sitting on the starting line so to speak. Both Dh and I feel as though our backs are to the wall, we both are beginning to question if we missed our window of opportunity (we have both hit the 40 year old mark) . In the next week or two we must make the gut wrenching decision whether to abandon this dream or make one more hail-mary pass and get things up an running with a new faciltitator that we have had on hold for months. We so don't know what to do!!!

Anyway, let me get back on track. We too knew that we would have to wait, but I never imagined having no possibilities two years later. Grant it we have made things more difficult because we have specified that we would like to have a little girl. Still, that shouldn't make it impossible should it? Our agency and new faciltiator consider us to be very open in all other areas, so that should count for something right?

I can't tell you how many times we have had people tell us how wonderful our family is and how if they were placing a baby for adoption, that they would place with us. Gee, that's great, but we really need to hear that from someone who is looking for an adoptive family. Where are all the potential birthmoms???

So yes we too feel like the world is passing us by and we are rather miserable right now, so you are definately not alone.

Tracey
