The Meeting

I am in a complete state of SHOCK right now!!!  I don't even think it is real, yet.  So surreal!!

So, the dream of being a Mommy is starting to take shape in a BIG way!!  Last Saturday, July 6, 2013, I went to Corner Bakery and met with a potential surrogate and my friend that put us in touch.  We talked for quite a long time and I felt that things were going very well.  At the end of the meeting, she told me that she was also in talks with another potential family.  My heart sank, but I knew that everything would work out the way it was supposed to, so I just stressed for the next few days in my own little way, which meant I did not sleep very much at all and survived on coffee.  That is the worry side of me!  But, by mid week, I was in contact with her and we were scheduling dinner so our Husbands could meet as well as her two boys.  Tonight, July 12, 2013, we met at 7:00pm at Joe's Crab Shack for dinner and talked for a couple hours and just had casual conversation.  It was really laid back and comforting.  At the end of the dinner, they told us that they had been speaking to another Family and decided they were just not the fit for them and had decided that God had led them to chose us.  I was just STUNNED, because I really just did not know what they felt was best for them.  As I sit here and type this post, I still can't believe it and SO excited for this Journey!!   Looking forward to the next year with this selfless Family!!
