The Longest Wait...Waiting to Adopt

We have been waiting for 5 years to adopt a baby. Our biological son is age 10.
It has been very painful at times because we have been so close to being picked .
I'm at a loss as to how long to continue our waiting. God has been so very good to us with the birth of our son Nathan. I really do feel He will bless us with another child.
Maybe we are just trying too hard to find that angel birthmom, that will let us be a part of her life by allowing us to adopt her precious gift.

Hello ~
Waiting to adopt is one of the hardest things I have had to do. We have been waiting for 2 1/2 years, and wonder what God's plan is for us. We just had a failed match, and we were so sure, after many 'almost' matches, that this was FINALLY the one! It was devestating, but I feel as you do - God will bless us with another child someday. I'm not sure how or when, but I think it WILL happen. I am trying to remember all that we have been blessed with, instead of feeling sorry that this hasn't happened for us yet.
Best wishes to you on your journey!
