Roxanne,
Just to let you know that I am thinking of you and praying for all of you this morning. I admire your strength and faith in leaving it in God's hands. May God's will be done for this child that he may lead a happy and healthy life in a loving home. Keep us posted!

You sound at peace, Roxanne. You and Dave are amazingly good people, and it sounds like if it's meant to be, it's meant to be. In the meantime, you are a family already, and it sounds like you are enjoying meeting this wonderful baby.

Fingers crossed and prayers said that what is meant to happen in the bigger picture happens, and that you are enriched by it all, whatever the outcome...

Hugs

Mary and the clan...

Roxanne,
Thanks for keeping us posted. I'm going to step out on a limb here and say that I am praying that the bmom has the strength to allow you and your dh to parent her bio child. You would be wonderful parents for him. And I admire your courage in being willing to foster him, knowing that the bmom may decide to take him back.

You are in my prayers!
Carolyn

You and your family are in my prayers. It sounds like God has already given you a great deal of peace and a willingness to surrender everything to him. I pray that the birthmom will make the right decision for her child and that you and your family will be blessed.

You really do sound at peace. I will pray for you that this little baby boy comes home to stay with you. It just seems right.

Good luck
