Hello
My home is ready to accept a baby girl immediately as I had a baby here for 2months and we fully took care of her, Let me begin again
Due to ovarian cysts and a tumor - I am unable to give birth, I have been wanting to adopt for years but the fees were always my hang up, My friends and family members all know I am looking to adopt and are very very supportive. 9 weeks ago, A former co-worker of mine called me at work and told me that their daughter had just had a baby and neither one of them where able to take care of her, ( birth mom was 14yrs old) - She expressed to me that they had talked about adoption - but then thought about me and my husband. I was excited but also protective. I told her - Talk to your daughter - I want to make sure this is what she wants to do,--Does she want to meet with us first???? I could have gotten the baby that day but decided to wait to allow to birth mother to be sure, after a few days I received a call that everything was a go, We talked directly to the birth mom and she felt that she wanted to finish school and knew that she could not take care of the baby. That evenig they brought the baby to us, a beautiful baby girl... I was so excited and we went shopping, I agreed to open adoption and that I had no problem with sending photos, and letters on the baby progress. 2 months passed and I was still waiting for us to finalize the guardianship paperwork, then I got a call, the teen birth mother wants her baby back, She had heard how good the baby was doing and felt she could do the same for the baby with her sisters help.
I gave the baby back - heart broken, but I have trust in God and know he has not forsaken me, I call often to check on her and I offer my help.
I am fully prepared to take a baby in my home, we have shoes until the baby wears a size 2, we have clothing until the baby wears a size 12mths- we have a bed, we have carrier, bouncer, blankets, onesies, sleepers etc..... We are looking for a birth mother who is willing to work with us. We can raise a child bit we can not afford the adoption agency fees that don't go to the child anyway.
My husband is a youth pastor and I am a praise dance instructor working with teh youth department in our church, we both have jobs, and a stable christian home.
