Good-Bye and Good Luck!

Well we had a wonderful fun filled weekend with beautiful weather, multiple walks around Greenlake and loving getting to know our little house guest. We knew there was a court hearing Monday morning and we found out in the afternoon that it was determined that the baby would be placed with family.

On the one hand, this is really the outcome that is best. It is best if children can stay with their families. But for us, this was not the outcome we were personally hoping for as we already were quite smitten with this charming girl. We got to say our good-byes last night and we are praying that everything works out for the best in her life and she grows up to be safe, happy and healthy.

This whole experience was wonderful in so many ways, but saying good-bye is always extremely hard and we will need some time to decide if we can do this again...
