Good and Bad News

Well, the state of Idaho had their official selection committee meeting about the 4 girls and I was surprised by how many families they had that were interested. The bad news is that they choose a different family. However, the good news is that all 4 girls will stay together. This was the ultimate goal of the tribe was to keep them together. We are very sad to have to say good-bye to our little Tristan, but we ultimately know that this is where she needs to be. It was hard to have our hopes up that we would be parents soon, but we just need to be patient and good things will come our way.

I'm glad all the sisters could stay together and that they will finally have some permanency in their lives. But I'm so sorry, too! Hang in there - you guys will get the family you deserve and you'll be the best parents ever! We love you guys!

You keep your spirits up! There are good things coming your way. I'm confident that you two will get your reward for patience. And when it comes you will be able to FULLY enjoy it and soak it up! Keep working toward it and you will get the child that BELONGS to you. Love ya!
