St. Gianna is really moving.
Last night, after a week of no phone calls or word either way, we got a call confirming that the birthmother would indeed like to meet us. We are flying out to her state next Friday. Both she and her parents (who apparently completely support her decision) are anxious to meet us. As we are them.
How does one prepare to meet the woman who is likely carrying one's next child? I'm numb. Excitedly, terrifyingly numb. I am having trouble wrapping my head around it all.
PS... Will give more details then. Except maybe this...
It's a GIRL!!!!

Thanks!
Wow! That is exciting. I will say some prayers for your trip. I would love to be invited to keep reading your blog: kglichten at yahoo dot com.
hello, first time commenter. I will be praying for you. I so remember the feelings. We did it twice. We brought pictures of our lives and families in a scrap book form. One thing I didn't realize the first time was how nervous she was as well. She wanted the baby to have a great home and thanked us over and over. I am sure your baby will be going to a great home as well.
My prayers are continuing for you! And... I would love an invitation!

Thanks all for your kind thoughts and prayers. I am anxious to update and get my blog private (or possibly creating an alternate private blog altogether) but I've had ZERO time. I promise to work on that this weekend!
