And somewhere, a judge and others are getting ready to go to work. I'm praying for things to happen today.

I did not mean to exclude anyone or be insensitive to anybody's situation or feelings. I have noticed your silence on the board lately and beleive me you have been missed and certainly not forgotten. While I don't know the details of what you are going through I pray that things are sorted out for your family very soon and you can bring home your son. I wish I could help shoulder some of this burden if only to give you a little rest. Fingers crossed for a positive decision for your family. Lots of love.

I continue to think about you and pray for your family and for your little Seth, and think of his beautiful photo you shared with me this summer. I so want to see him in your arms, coming down the escalator at the airport. Every day i think about you and about this dear little boy who is already part of your family in so many ways. I don't know the details and I can't give you the assurance or false hope, but so know that many of us are standing together with you and praying that God will make what seems impossible happen to bring your family together.<br />RamonaRamonahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11543009756679073312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2784135403058574688.post-57536840227178759562010-12-09T10:33:42.232-06:002010-12-09T10:33:42.232-06:00I can relate to the feeling "we are the only ...I can relate to the feeling "we are the only family living through this experience right now." - hugs & prayers and strength for today.Jesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02751133454566722270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2784135403058574688.post-75713060152885133302010-12-09T09:58:23.772-06:002010-12-09T09:58:23.772-06:00Thinking of you and I hope the 13th brings your ow...Thinking of you and I hope the 13th brings your own Christmas Miracle.<br /><br />SarahSarah Rodgersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17261195610075664716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2784135403058574688.post-13157016983150894542010-12-09T09:44:45.765-06:002010-12-09T09:44:45.765-06:00I am so sorry that you are going through this.

I am so glad that you have let us know when the next date in your agonizing (to date) journey so far is. It will be marked on my calendar and the kids and I will be praying about it. <br /><br />I am so sorry that things have gone the way they have. I wish I had the words that would help in some way, but I am at a loss.

Honestly, I think people need to be a bit more reserved when getting referrals. I read a few people talk about their referral as their "son" or "daughter". I know they are just excited but it is a long and crazy process as YOU know and sadly they aren't your children until you get through court. <br />I pray you can get through these difficult days and that you are getting lots of support from your family and friends right now. xoxoemilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04937795241602964804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2784135403058574688.post-29692652748075292892010-12-08T22:38:27.912-06:002010-12-08T22:38:27.912-06:00Still praying and thinking and thinking and prayin...Still praying and thinking and thinking and praying Laura.
