Unanswered Prayers

We are healing slowly, I think I'm further along then Dan. It is so painful and heartbreaking. It's like finding out you are pregnant and then miscarrying. Your hopes are so high and then loss. However it is what it is. We can't change it. We just need to accept it and move on. The Agency had called, both our social worker and the birthmom's social worker. During my conversations with them I didn't have the need to ask questions as to "why". It doesn't matter. This is odd coming from me, I'm the type of person that can over analyze anything to death (I know there are alot of nodding heads of family and friends reading this LOL!).

I know that one day it will happen for us and it will be a wonderful match! We'll look back to this situation and thank God for this one not working out. During times like this in my life, when things don't go the way I want them to, I always think back to the song by Garth Brooks "Unanswered Prayers" and it gives me comfort:

Sometimes I thank God for unanswered prayers Remember when you're talkin' to the man upstairs That just because he doesn't answer doesn't mean he don't care Some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers

There have been so many things in my life that I have truly thanked God for not answering that prayer. He does know what he's doing sometimes ;-)

I want to extend a big hug and thanks to everyone for their support during this trying time. It would be so much harder if we didn't have your support.
