I have had many ask and figured I could post a quick note:
James and I flew down to Georgia Tuesday, August 9th, to pick up a sweet baby girl. We flew back Sunday, August 14th, without a baby.
There was much that happened in those days and I can say that our hearts are grieved. At this time, we are taking a small break to heal and recoup and will post more information on our next steps after we have processed it entirely ourselves. I'd be lying if I said this didn't cause doubts in my own mind, as the emotions go from numbness, anger, grief, sadness and so on.
Thank you to all who have prayed and cared for us along this way. We believe in adoption and believe our family, Lord willing, will do so in the right timing.
For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven:
a time to be born, and a time to die;
a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;
a time to kill, and a time to heal;
a time to break down, and a time to build up;
a time to weep, and a time to laugh;
a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
Ecclesiastes 3:1-4
Melanie & James
