I kinda thought with this being Friday and all that I would hear from Lauren again (I have the last 2 Fridays), but I did not hear from her today. After calling me 5 times last Friday, saying she wanted to come over here, I got ready to go get her and waited for to call and tell me she was ready. She never called back. I guess that tells it all...she is not ready!
We have started thinking less and less about her, which I thought would never happen. In the beginning, our thoughts were consumed by her. Now, we are trying to move on. We have another meeting at the Village tomorrow to learn about myths and misconceptions about adoption. That one should be interesting. I have also contacted 2 adoption attorneys. One talked to me on the phone for a little while and gave me some common sense advice, but told me to hurry - we aren't getting any younger! I am still waiting for the other one to call me back and he is the one I really want to talk to. I just have a feeling he is giong to be able to offer us some alternatives we haven't even thought of.
Please continue to pray for us, and let's not forget about Lauren. No matter want happens with us and our journey, she still needs our prayers and her precious baby still needs a loving and safe home.
