Desperate and Urgent Request for Prayers

I cannot say too much about our situation, but our evil adoption agency has stolen almost $10K of our money and is trying to block the finalization of our adoption. We are hemorrhaging money to our attorneys to try to get rid of them.

Thankfully, the custody of our children is not in question. They are ours.

But friends, please pray for us. Pray to St. Michael to protect us from evil. Pray to the Virgin of Guadalupe to protect our children and our whole family. Pray to God that his Wisdom and Justice will prevail.

Book Giveaway

I have so many updates for you. So many updates. But they will have to wait until I have the time and the inclination to write coherent, or at least semi-coherent, posts.

But for now, I need to clean out my bookshelf.

All of the following books are in very good condition. If you would like a specific title, please email me with your mailing address. First come, first serve. All books will be shipped media mail, unless you send me a check for shipping.

• Taking Charge of Your Fertility: The definitive guide to natural birth control, pregnancy achievement, and reproductive health, Toni Weschler (CD included)
• The Complete Book of International Adoption: A step-by-step guide to finding your child, Dawn Davenport
• The Infertility Cure: The ancient Chinese wellness program for getting pregnant and having healthy babies, Randine Lewis
• The Fertile Female, Julie Indichova
• Making Babies: A Proven 3-month program for maximizing fertility, Jill Blakeway and Sami David

Obviously, none of the fertility books got me pregnant, but arguably, I didn't go too crazy with gluten-free, sugar-free, dairy-free fun-free diets.

News

I am overflowing with joy to announce that DH and I have become the parents of newborn twins through the blessing of open domestic adoption. Please keep their birthmother in your prayers, as she is grieving. 

Though we are overjoyed to become parents at last, we have had to deal with on-going financial struggles with our adoption agency, whom we have reported to the attorney general in our state. 

I am looking forward to continuing to blog here about infertility, adoption, the ethics of adoption, adoption agencies, and our experience with adoption, if I can do it in a way that manages to protect the privacy of both the children and their birthmother. 

If you are a regular reader of this blog and would like to see a picture, please drop me an email. 

I am still infertile, a member of that great sisterhood whose bodies don't make babies. I continue to pray for all of you on your journeys and discernments, and I hope to keep up with you via your blogs. As I will never mommy-blog, I do hope you'll keep up with me, even though I have as they say, crossed over.
