I hope you all havent forgot me!! I dont get on this site like I use to - just busy, busy, busy. We have a court date of July 27th for our adoption hearing for Jessie. I am super nervous about this! I know God will do what He feels is best for Jessie. We were praying that since it has been months that the bio father would just give up, but that doesnt seem to be the case. Please, please remember us in prayer that day. We are so ready to have this whole situation be done and overwith. It has been hanging over our heads for months. Jessie will be 6 yrs old in June and we will sit down and explain what is happening later that month. Pray for us!! Thank you!!
praying for you all Praying for you all here. Take care of yourself first and that baby on the way. Love, Lorna
Oh, Crystal, we will sure be praying for that precious little girl of yours!!! When is the baby due, BTW?
Just in case Crystal doesn't come back to answer your question, Jackie, the baby is due on Labor Day!!!!! Crystal~ if you do sign in to check this, please know that you're in my thoughts and prayers everyday. Jessie is a little doll and I'm sure you'll get to keep her!!! Love you!
Crystal, We're praying for you here. Remember the baby that you're carrying as well. Don't work yourself up to a point where you comprimise your health or the health of the unborn child (and the rest of your family). Let God look after the details that you have absolutley no control over (the bio father, etc). This will all work out in the end and God is using this to teach you something (? patience?) and to develop character in you. It won't be an easy character building lesson, but you'll rise to the challenge. Sending knee mail on your behalf, Brenda (Hugs)
Yes, my due date is Labor Day! LOL Sept. 5th. Heidi - who I love and adore - will keep you all posted when I give birth I am sure. I am almost 26 wks. So by the time this hearing comes in July I will be 8 months pregnant! Not thrilled about that, but God IS in control. Our lawyer had told us the court date wouldnt be until Sept. and see how already God is taking care of me. God knew I would not be in any kind of shape to testify and be interrogated having just given birth. Now by the time the baby comes all this will be behind me! I have days where my nerves get the best of me and I wonder how I am possibly going to get threw this??? Thats when I fall on my knees, come here to you all, my friends, family, dh - whoever will listen and I am always encouraged. Thank you! I cant ever begin to express how much you all and your words mean to me. You all give me strength and encouragement and remind me of Gods love. Thank you so very much!!!!
Becky, is that post partum or PMS (or is there a difference)? :lol: If I were in the same shoes, I'd sooner be facing PMS (that's when I could be nasty and to the blunt point - but in a nice way of course). :wink: Brenda
I was telling my dh what Becky said and he reminded me I probably wont be super nice come the end of July either. Swollen feet, the heat of July and a huge belly, plus not wanting to go threw this might be enough to make me pretty blunt and nasty! This jerk is trying to take my daughter away and I am feeling extra maternal lately. God is good and I am glad that I finally have a sense of humor about this. Ok, today is my birthday and dh is waiting to curl up and watch a movie with me. Thanks ladies!
Praying here again, Crystal. I was just thinking of Jessie and your family last week and wondering if things were still underway. God's timing is perfect and as long as you keep letting Him orchestrate all these events, nothing will happen that shouldn't happen. He created Jessie, and you, and your newest growing baby, and He knew the three of you would all be in it together come July. And I believe it is no mistake that you have kept us informed of the situation. Lets take up our swords, ladies, and make war on the floor! Let His people pray!!!! Love ya!
I suspect I'm a day late with this but Oh well. Ladies indulge me please Happy Birthday to you Happy Birthday to you Happy Birthday dear Crystal Happy Birthday to you Glad that you're seeing some humour in all of this - it will help (and I didn't consider the large belly grueling heat/humidity days either - I remember them to well). We're all praying for you here. Brenda
Happy Birthday, Crystal! I'm praying for you as your court date approaches & Labor Day, too! Blessings,
Brenda Brenda, that is what friends are for. Ask Trish from SC she can tell you that. She doesn't live to far from me. LOL Crystal, praying for you here today. Stanlette is still having fun too. She will be home before long. Tell the kids for us!!! We have had a fun time with this. Lorna
I know I can show my bad side. I try to be nice to show my bad side. I know Lorna has seen some of my bad side but not all. I don't want anybody to see that. It might scare them. Crystal, Happy Belated Birthday. You are in my prayers.
