DaddysAngel - any updates? I never heard from my niece, so I guess her paper was not interested in the story. Sorry.
Christie - did you get your court date?
Your families are in my prayers.

We also had no response from any media. I guess it just is not news worthy. We were open and honest with the attorneys we spoke with and two of them were willing to work with us as far as funding. We chose a man that is all for the child. He said nothing bothers him more then a bfather that thinks he can appear 9yrs later and still believe he has rights. He already talked to his lawyer and told him he will make sure that the childs best interest will over ride anything else and that is what should have been happening from the get go but you and your client had other selfish reasons to try and accomplish whatever it is your trying to do. He also said to us that we look very bad down there because we did not follow any of their court rulings and that the bfather has been telling many lies and the biggest one is He has been searching for her for many years.Dumb A** what he does not know is we have court records from down there that states where we were living. Now that he knows we are coming and we will not just hand her over and walk away I am very curious to see if he just drops it and does not show up in court. If that does happen and we went through this hell for 3 yrs I for one will talk to our attorney to see what we can do to make sure he pays for pain and suffering.He has brought it this far and I gurantee that we will take it all the way to the end. But first one step at a time. One thing that his attorney told ours is that it may be worked out as far as visitation(which was offered before and he refused) He said we could bring her as often as the bfather request and this would be ALL at our expense. Sometimes I wish I had a father like that.I want a relationship with you but I will not pay anything for it and I expect you to do everything for that to happen.Quite a guy huh? GOD BLESS

It is agonizing. Every day as I walk to my mailbox my heart beats so hard. We expect to get our court date any day now. This next hearing is a big one because the birthmom is finally an adult. She still refuses mediation, visitation, phone calls, pictures - it seems that should say something to the judge. Thank you, Kay, for asking. It helps to know there are others out there thinking of and praying for us. Five long years... will it ever end?:( Christie
Christie and Daddy's Angel, still have you both in my prayers and watching what's happening for both of you. Christie, I hope your child's birthmother will prove herself now, so that the court can see that her interests lie with herself and not at all with the child you have parented all these years, aside from her nonsense. Daddy's Angel -- did your attorney talk at all about whether the court will listen to what your daughter wants for her future? Did that even come up?

We have a few short weeks left and it should all be over. My lawyer said one year after the adoption is final... I hope this is correct. The nightmares have started again - having to give my baby back to someone who hasn't even tried to be a father. My family thinks that I am crazy to start worrying now. "We are almost out of the woods." That's what I hear... Well, I don't want to be ALMOST out, I want it to be done. So I will have no urge to worry anymore about this. DaddysAngel and Christie - I come everyday to look for updates on your situations (along with all others). You both are in my prayers! I hope that someday we can all post on hear when all of this is over and done with!God Bless!
Joskids - We can not answer that question yet. We sent our attorney copies of all the stuff we had and I wrote him a letter explaining how we feel about all this and what our goals are. I have put a call into him and am waiting for a call back. Anneo - Thankyou for all the prayers. You state to keep everyone updated so as to adjust your prayers.Well we have our angel in counseling at this time and yesterday she told us that the counsler asked her what her greatest fear was. Her answer was that her bfather would come and take her away,but she was not afraid of that anymore.Then she was asked what her wish was and she said she wished that she was not adopted and that she wished we were her birth parents.So to adjust your prayers-Please pray that there will come a day that this little girl will feel blessed to be adopted and that blood does not make a family. Sadmomma - We have tryed every news media/talk show/foundations that claim to protect children with absolutely no response from any of them. This will make the second time in all of this we have contacted them all and the second time we have been ignored by them all. I said it before that the only way they would get involved is if he was to get her back and severly harmed or killed her.THEN it would be news worthy.Taking a child from a home she has known since birth ( 9yrs) they just do not see the ratings there.It is more important that society be informed that a candidate for the presidency has spent $400.on a hair cut. Jaefer - Sometimes that is all that gets me through a day is to sit and daydream about the future when this is all over.To have this lifted out of our lives and for the stress and anger to disappear will be a gift from GOD. ChristieS - Thinking about and praying for you. GOD BLESS
Its unbelievable that nobody in the media is interested in picking this up. You would think this is most important enough the fate of a child!! You certainly would have many supporters standing by you and your family. It is so sad to know this child only wants to stay where she has been for the last nine years. At her age, she should be allowed to voice her feelings. Why do they continously give rights to a birth father who has done absolutely nothing for her? I cannot imagine what goes through this birth fathers mind to want to take a child away after 9 years of being in such a loving family. Sorry that is not love but control. The scariest thing is every judge is different. The judge we had clearly was protecting the child in our case she stated 2 years and the birth father seeing the child only once was just not enough. Now coming back and seeing these cases still ongoing is just unbelievable! Clearly coming to this board only shows the boundaries of love that we will go and continue to fight for our angels. There is not a doubt that God only picks the best and places us with these angels for a reason. I continue to pray ...that soon your peace will come.
