Last night I got a call from our counselor...B (the birthdad) has just come into the picture and thinks he may want to parent Baby J. In cases like this, all profiles are pulled until the kerfuffle is sorted out. We're not sure if or when we will know anything about this baby, or whether he will be parented by one of his parents.

There are currently 17 babies in our agency's nursery though, so perhaps one of those babies is ours. We will continue to keep our minds clear of any negativity and focus on the end result and hope that you can all join us in doing the same.

As written in the Tao Te Ching, chapter 33:

Knowing others is wisdom;
Knowing the self is enlightenment.
Mastering others requires force;
Mastering the self requires strength;
He who knows he has enough is rich.
Perseverance is a sign of will power.
He who stays where he is endures.
To die but not to perish is to be eternally present.

Jeremy and I thank you all for your enduring support, love and prayers.
