Well its been a few weeks since I posted about the developments with Mommy D. We mentioned that she had wanted us to contact her and so we did and the letter was given to her by the social worker. We suspected two reasons as to why she would want to contact us. One of the reasons has been ruled out. When the social worker called she said that she suspected Mommy D might be pregnant. Because we have Jaydon, we would be considered next of kin and therefore, she asked if we would consider taking this baby as well if it should turn out that she was pregnant! Wow! What a lot of soul searching we had to do, as this was not something we had been seeking out. After praying about it and talking about it, we felt that God was leading us to at least pursue this option and get more information should she indeed be pregnant. This was I think the big reason that the social worker wanted us to respond to Mommy D's request for communication so that if she was pregnant, she might tell us. However, after the social worker's next visit, she no longer suspected that Mommy D was pregnant. Believe it or not, this is a relief, but also a disappointment. Part of me wonders why God allowed her to say anything to us when she wasn't sure of anything. Perhaps God was just wanting to see if we would be willing to do something that wasn't a part of "our" plan??
The social worker said that Mommy D had written us a letter back on her pad of paper and that she would get that to us. This has been 1 1/2 - 2 weeks ago, and we still are waiting on this letter. So we still do not know why she wanted us to communicate with her.
Another thing we mentioned in the last blog post is that we believe we have found one of Jaydon's siblings. After giving up hope of not making a connection with the adoptive family, after a few attempts to make that connection, I received a message on facebook yesterday from the adoptive mother saying that she would like to make contact. I was so excited!!!! However, that excitement quickly turned to frustration today when I went to pull up that message that she sent me. Facebook will not let me respond!!! She must have changed her privacy settings or something because now I can't even find her profile on facebook. :/ So.....I am trying to find a way to make that connection become re-established to see if we can finally "get together".
Also, there is a hurting family that we love dearly that we have been helping recently. The Lord knows their situation, but please join us in praying for them and that hurting hearts will be healed!
Thanks for praying!
