Not because it means it won't happen one day but because you deserve less set backs more rushing forwards!

We've been on a delayed path also and it truly is trying.

Gladney seems to have had you jump through a ton of hoops. Why'd you choose to work with them and not an agency like Wide Horizons for Children??

Still there will be a baby at the end of this journey. Hang in :); June 17, 2009 at 8:39 PM
