Well that was short lived

I asked my cousin if he ended up talking with the birth mom and apparently her mom convinced her to keep the baby so they never ended up meeting together. I am not surprised. At this point it just seems too good too be true to ever get a baby anyway. It seems impossibly that anyone would let us adopt their baby. And it kind of feels like this is going to keep happening over and over again. False hopes, and nothing to show for it. But that's our life and I have just got to be ok with that.
