Children everywhere!

I received an e-mail earlier this week about 2 children, a boy and a girl ages 6 and 4. Our caseworker send our file to the children's caseworker. The children's CW is on vacation until Monday so she'll start looking at all the files next week and go from there.

Tonight we got home from work and there was a message on our machine from another CW with our agency. She works out of a different office than our CW and she wanted us to call her. Her message said that she is working with a birth mother who is making her adoption plan and she mentioned us by name. Bells and whistles went off and I instantly thought of the baby my friend G told us about. I called the CW back on both numbers she left and I had to leave her a message. She called back about an hour later.

Sure enough it was about that baby. How ironic that we are going through the same agency but different programs. Anyway, this CW is going to contact our CW and get our file. She's going to put our file with some others for the mom to go through. She hasn't made a definite decision yet but she is leaning toward an open adoption.

I can't believe all the calls we are getting. I am hoping the CW's will work together and keep us up to date on what is going on in all fronts. We don't want to miss out on something good because we are waiting for what we think will be better. I pray for clarity and wisdom in the choices we may need to make!
