Our Friends

Last summer Malone and I were able to attend a conference about adoption. While we were there we met some really great people. Two of these people are Savannah and Josh. They have been hoping to have children for a very long time. They've tried to conceive on their own and they've tried to adopt. Last fall they were selected by a birthmom. Just today I found out that their birthmom has backed out on them. My heart breaks every time I hear of a situation like this. Although we respect that only a birthmom has the right to make a decision about placing her child, we also understand how horrible it is to be the couple who gets the short end of the stick. Anyhow, the purpose of this post is not to bemoan our past experiences. We have grieved and moved on. However, moving on from such an experience isn't easy, and I'm sure Savannah and Josh are really in need of extra prayers right now. So please pray for them. I know they're not sure exactly what they will plan to do now. So maybe the best thing would be if we pray for them to find the solace they need and be led to the path which will be best for their family. Thanks in advance!
