Well we got the call last night. The one I've been dreading. It was a very emotional night for all of us. Hailey's realization of her world changing was very traumatic and upsetting. We have developed such a strong bond and as she and I sobbed in each other's arm's last night I realized how much she means to me. I know emotionally she should ( Read more... )

I'm sure it's terrible. Just awful. :( I don't even know what to say. I completely understand and it was kind of one of those situations where I can't say I even begin to know what's right. I know that you didn't get much notice, and it's hard because it was kind of like, when they get the house, but who knows when that is? And then all of a sudden BAM! They get it. All I know is it's been hard to convince Kristy that she can't get to her right this very second, so please remember that it's been very hard for Kristy too to be away. I've given up trying to give any advice or talk any sense~ all I can do at this point is to gently remind them to try to be sensitive to your situation as well~ and I hope that they do a decent job at it, but honestly Margie, I'm at my wits end not even knowing what I believe.

Thanks for understanding. I appreciate you not putting a guilt trip on me which would be very easy to do. She's not our child and I know that. That being said, it doesn't make it any easier. She brings a light to Cam's and my life. Even before she came to stay with us when we would pick her up on the weekends I know there was something special there. I know it sounds weird but it's like she a soul mate of mine. Maybe we knew each other in a past life or something. Maybe she was meant to come to us so I could experience motherhood for awhile. Whatever the reason I have no regrets about the last 7 months.

Anyway, I appreciate you listening to me and understanding me in your own little way.

Take it easy...

Of COURSE I understand~ I had trouble after only like, a month or so. That's got to be really tough on all of you. I'm sorry that you're going through it too~ but as you said, it's better than having never had her with you.
