I've been a little quiet these past few weeks. Still excited and hopeful as ever, but, I think I needed a bit of a break. I've been told by so many friends that adoption is like a roller coaster ride. There will be ups and downs... and the hardest part is the wait.
Truth be told, last month was a little tough...
I'm fairly certain that we've suffered an emotional adoption scammer. Someone who pretends they are pregnant and develops a relationship with you.... tells you they chose you as the adoptive parents...and then you realize it was all a lie.
I just never thought it would happen to us or that I could be so naive?
Marc and I were aware that this could possibly happen when we decided to pursue adoption without an agency. I thought I knew all the warning signs... I didn't. Let me tell you... it hurt... bad.
So, YES, I needed a break. Some time to rest and pray and move forward.
And here I am. Happy and positive as ever... living by my philosophy that "things happen for reasons" and going with it.
It's funny how great things happen when you least expect it..... :)
I also forgot to update our paneled sitting room... the after is quite a change....
