Followup to the wait....

I ended up emailing the social worker today to see if she had made any progress with the birth mother. She wrote back a little while later. She had just finished meeting with the birth mother for a counseling appointment. She said at this time, she is not comfortable matching the birth mother with any parents due to some new developments that had come to her attention. She said that until these issues were resolved, she would not be presenting any families to her.

Hey, we are of course a little disappointed to hear this BUT, at least this happened before and not after the child came to live with an adoptive family. We took this as a sign to check out the other agency (much closer to home) that was recommended to us by our lawyer AND a friend of a friend. The earliest appointment they had was July 16th. The case worker did send me some information which was helpful and encouraging.

I will as always update as information becomes available!
