Profile Showing

Today we had another profile showing.  At first, the birth mom did not have any preferences other than she did not want to look at anymore than 10 profile books.  When this happens, the agency picks the families who have been waiting the longest.  So even though it's frustrating we have been waiting so long, in this situation it ended up being a good thing!  We were one of the 10 books that were shown.  The bad news is right when she sat down, the first families she eliminated were families with biological children :/ Apparently this is a common trend right now....eliminating families with biological children.  Very frustrating to say the least.

Our new social worker came to meet us tonight and we like her a lot.  Mostly because she seems as upset as we are that we have only had two profile showings!  She says she doesn't understand and wants to reverse that for us this year.  I am hopeful with a new social worker, new eyes on our case, we will have more "looks" this year.  I am excited for a new year and hopefully can start to get more positive on the situation!

Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers for us! We know our time is coming and are remaining faithful that we were lead to adoption for a reason!!!
