Venting and the reason for the private blog
So most people know Jamie and I started the adoption process in 2007. Since we were matched and then had a failed adoption. Later found out she was not fully planning on placing the baby she just enjoyed the extra money she received. The only way to look at it without putting a sugar coating on it was she was money scamming which was confirmed by her boyfriend. NOW we have been contacted by another individual who does not want money just our emotions. This person has become very interested in our little family and she is not even pregnant. There is so much to the story but I am just so sick and tired of it that I do not want to go into it. Is adoption really worth all this??? I have failed when it comes to journals so I love having the blog to post pictures for memories. I do not mind friends and family catching up with us via our blog. However, I do not want women pretending to be pregnant spending time looking at our family :-)

Hey Darla, thanks for letting me view your blog. I'm so sorry for the additional heartache that has been brought onto your family this past year. I know that whatever is supposed to happen will happen, whether it be with the three awesome kids you have now, or with another one that should come to you in the future. And, then, yes--adoption would be worth it :) I'll be praying for you guys. I hope 2009 is a good year for the Alford's :)
Geez, what a coocoo. Not even pregnant?!!! So what is her name anyway. Sorry you had to deal with that.
I'm sure you already know, but that is just awful! Rita and Michale were also trying to adopt through the state and were getting this yoyo of a case worker. So hearing her story and yours I really feel for you. Maybe through going through all this the more love and thankfulness you will have when God does truly speak to a girls heart to give you guys a child. I love you! Wishing you the best for 2009!
Darla,
I am so sorry that people are just jerks! I am really glad that I get to read your blog... I am just so annoyed for you!!! I love you!!!
That really sucks. I can't believe you guys attract crazy like moth to a flame!
