Still Waiting.....

Just wanted to update everyone on our situation. We still don't know much. Basically, we are still waiting on a decision from the baby's birth father. He has custody so the decision is primarily his. He still has the profiles of us and one other family.He had called the agency last Wed and asked them a couple of questions about us and our lifestyle...we had the answers to those questions that he wanted so we were pretty hopeful that he would choose us before the weekend (last weekend). But he still hasn't chosen anyone. The agency says that they are pretty confident that he is not changing his mind, but just is having a hard time choosing.
We aren't convinced. I have a feeling that he is thinking he may want to keep the child. The truth is, as long as there is no neglect or abuse, then being with his biological father is the best place for him. He is old enough to experience a lot of grief when he leaves his birth family and it would truly be better for him if he never experiences that grief. We are truly okay with that. We know that God has a plan....and His plan is best. It may/may not make sense to us....but it's not about us. It's all about Him and the child and the plan that He has for us and for our child to be. We trust His Hand!
So we have asked our agency to not keep us on hold - we will still gladly accept this child if his father chooses us...but we don't want to continue to "hold" just for this one. So our agency has placed us back on the list again and we will see what happens! We SO appreciate your prayers, thoughts and encouragement. You have blown our minds with the support you have given us! We have some awesome friends and family!
