This is so great!
Our agency just told us of a similar story. A couple were chosen by a PBM who gave birth 12/21. In Ohio, it is 72 hours before relinquishment papers can be signed. On 12/24, an hour before the couple were to pick up the baby -- and after three days of PBM feeling committed to her adoption plan -- she decided to parent.

A very sad holiday for the waiting couple.

Then on Sunday, another PBM changed her mind about parenting and called the agency asking them to place her 3 day old daughter (born Christmas day) with the family who had been waiting the longest, which was the grieving couple.

How's that for a happy ending???

Hope the synchronicity plays out for you, too! And a very happy new year!!!!
