The Worst and Best Day.

Mike is so ready to share what exactly is going on, but I am not. This is unusual because normally Mike is the reserved one and I am the one sharing everything. I am sorry for driving you all nuts. I will say that we are praying for a good ending to all this, which if all goes well, we will know in two weeks exactly. We were praying for everything to be known today, for the decisions to be decided so that we could stop making so many trips down to St. George. We made it safely down to St. George, and after a restless night (for me), we got up to face the day. There was a lot of praying, a lot of pondering, and just pleading to the Lord to bring peace, no matter what happened. Things kept getting moved back to later and later, and finally the time came. We felt like things were going our way, but than the world turned up-side down on us, and we were left upset, and heart-broken. We headed back, and just ached at how saddened and empty we felt. We cried, we yelled out in frustration, and just felt like things could not possibly begin to go right in our family. Fifteen minutes later, those who had made us so unhappy, called to tell us to come back to see if things could work out. Another 1 hour and 20 minutes later, we felt much more peace, but were emotionally spent. It seems the Lord is indeed softening hearts, because it is exactly what happened in some small ways today, and even the last couple of days. We feel good about going back down in two weeks, that we will maybe get our good ending. You just never know. We just know that we have a bunch of hoops to jump through.
P.S. This next comment is for/from Mike:
It should be pretty obvious what is going on. Since there are quite a few people who do already know, and word is bound to get around anyway, we agreed that it would be best to let you know that this is indeed all related to adopting a baby. We will not share the specifics, but just know the baby is stinking cute, which must mean that our little baby is already here!!! So PLEASE, PLEASE pray for our little family this next two weeks.
*And we will share more when we feel we are able to. There is just still so much unknown that we need to protect ourselves and our little one.*

Two posts in one day, sorry!

I just wanted to add one more post. Please pray that this week I do not see the birth-mom we were supposed to adopt from. She is due any day, and I work Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. It kinda breaks my heart, the loss of potential once more. I need the strength this week.
