our road:
started adoption process March '08
5.19.08...matched with emom due Sept. 10th
5.27.08...found out emom/edad are leaning towards parenting and we're now the "back up plan"
6.30.08...emom will only parent if her and edad get married. edad said NO and they informed us they'll be doing an adoption plan
8.25.08...our son was born!
8.26.08...we find out birthparents need more time and they take the baby home for 7 days. We were crushed.
9.2.08...to our shock TPR was signed. Our son is home!
