But I guess that is what is expected anyay. Birth parents are given every right. Every chance. Every everything. All while an innocent child gets shuffled around the system. So not fair. But that's how the darn system is set up. Why? I'll never understand.
With that said, it's not totally over. There will be one more hearing in the May-June timeframe. If nothing has changed for the birth parents by then, the placement here will be reconsidered.
Social services, the baby's lawyer and my inlaws all testified to move her now. But the judge that was chosen likes to keep birth families together. And the birth parents were coached with their appearance: high heels, suits, ties, etc.
I can't feel guilty. I did all that I could. I just feel a deep sorrow for the innocent child. Please keep praying for her.
Busy, busy, busy, busy, busy!

I'm so sorry, Carla. For you, for Bill, for the boys... and for that poor, sweet baby. No. Don't feel guilty. Why feel guilty for opening your heart, your arms and your home for sweet baby girl? God continue to bless you for your generous and loving heart. May he also send you oceans of peace.
ReplyDeleteI talked to you about this earlier in the week and you know I'm so amazed with your offer to help this little girl.
ReplyDeleteI get wanting the birth parents to get their act together and all and I suppose I would want to know that my parents fought for me.
Seems clear that a lot of that is acting though and I am heartbroken for that little girl.
You and your family have done such an amazing thing in opening your life and your hearts to this little person that you don't even know yet.
I hope, I pray (and you know I'm not much of a praying type) that this little girl ends up in the best possible hands. Prayers for this little girl and enormous respect for you!
