Better yet, how DARE YOU question what GOD has decided for them or Natasha? It is not your place to judge!! I pray God opens your eyes and removes that hatred from your heart. This is a precious baby that deserves to be in the arms of her loving mother and SHE IS HER MOTHER EVEN IF SHE'S NOT BLOOD. <br />Comparing this precious family to those that adopted and were bad parents? SHAME!! Look at the love this family spreads!! Look at the FAITH of this family!! If God wants Natasha to be with them then HE will make it that way.<br /><br />I pray for you, Natasha! I pray for you to get HOME soon and enjoy the love of your mom, dad, and two brothers!Marie Diane Photographyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16583526941123996585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3383943889759929161.post-68242569762829311662012-01-06T14:19:06.036-08:002012-01-06T14:19:06.036-08:00My hubby and are I are 32 and 31 and make a consid...My hubby and are I are 32 and 31 and make a considerably good salary just over 140k and have very little debt, basically house, cars and student loans and have adopted once and are adopting again but we had to take out a loan for our first adoption for about half the fee because we were matched a month after our home study and our son was born the next month. You're right I don't know anyone who has kids, house, cars etc etc that could just afford to pay $30 to $40 thousand at once or even in a years time! There is NOTHING wrong with fundraising, people are free to choose whether or not to give. I think adopting a special baby like you are is wonderful.Crissileahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12618161480534449712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3383943889759929161.post-83290749473973247462012-01-06T13:00:49.737-08:002012-01-06T13:00:49.737-08:00I think what you are doing is absolutely amazing. ...I think what you are doing is absolutely amazing. As a mother of a baby girl with DS, seeing what some of these kids are going through just kills me inside. Knowing there are families like yours that are willing to take the leap of faith and give up so much to give that baby girl a home, well, there just are not words to say how grateful it makes me feel. <br />This may be a hard road and many people you previously counted on may desert you, but know there are people that don't even know you who are supporting you and sending you all our best wishes. <br />I am rooting for you and Natasha in this adoption and pray it works out. Stay the course!Laura Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17982511294538274053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3383943889759929161.post-55877536302143068342012-01-05T23:32:12.458-08:002012-01-05T23:32:12.458-08:00Frankly, I don't feel those individuals who di...Frankly, I don't feel those individuals who disagree with you adopting Natasha, whether family or not, DESERVE to be a part of your lives. Not one of those so called "reasons" justify you not being allowed or worthy of being Natasha's mother. From what was said, it makes me wonder even if you had given birth to Natasha whether these individuals would love her, let alone accept her. Those who are helping you in your process to adopt Natasha, whether financially or by spreading the word or by praying are doing so because they can see that you ARE Natasha's mommy. There are plenty of people, whether blood or not, who would be honored and overjoyed to be a part of Natasha's "family". There has not been a day that has gone by that I have not thought of Natasha since learning of her and your plans to adopt her. We are not "family" and even though I have not met her, I love her and want only the best for her...something all DECENT human beings should want for her. Hugs to you all, especially to little Natasha.Rachel Tilleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03607416240620193078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3383943889759929161.post-57952712003844694632012-01-05T07:04:11.584-08:002012-01-05T07:04:11.584-08:00(((hugs)))) What an impossibly hard thing to ask a...(((hugs)))) What an impossibly hard thing to ask a person... to give up their child for you. :( Narcissistic, yes, definitely.
