waiting for a mom.........one of our to be adopted babies, the mom wants to see him. She is not changing her mind, and her family has no idea she is sneaking out to see him. She called the other day to say the court appointed social worker was at her house, but she wasn't there just her mom. When the social worker asked if they were willing to allow him to visit when he was older, the grandma said NO.....they want this basically erased from their family history.
Mom is her now, baby is playing as any baby does. She is putting him to sleep, I think it is good for her. Now he is awake;-)
Some will say that we shouldn't allow this, the mom to come and visit. But if she wants to, I think then she needs to. We are not taking the baby and forgetting the birth mom all together, she does need to cut the cord so to speak. For some it takes time, for some who had planned on giving baby up early in the pregnancy, it doesn't take as much time. For moms to see baby is healthy and fine, that is a step for them.
Well, that is about here on our end. Baby C got AIT approval, so we are going to enter the courts as soon as we get the papers.
Ok, off to answer some questions.
Thoughts and feelings as we minister to women in crisis here in Taitung. Our prayer is they see God when they need HIM most.

I think that is awesome that you allow the birth mom to visit their baby and help establish some closure in their decision to put their infant up for adoption.
