Broken (Yet Hopeful) Hearts

This has not been a good day.

This is Zechariah, the little boy we intended to adopt.   Isn't he precious?

Please notice that I said intended to adopt.  We were notified this morning by our agency that we do not meet USCIS guidelines to adopt him from overseas.

We are heartbroken.  I know they tell you not to fall in love until you get an official match, but it's much too late for us.  If the adoption process is akin to a pregnancy, we feel like this must have been a miscarriage.

The good part of this is that Zechariah is still alive and well, and still waiting for someone to be his Mommy and Daddy.

He will need lots of help.  He will need your prayers, your sharing, and your donations to help him locate and attract a family to go scoop him up and bring him home.

We have to believe that G-d had a better plan for him than our family.  To think otherwise is just too painful.

Please, please, please share this blog post.  Tell your friends, your family, your co-workers about this precious little boy who needs a family.  Who almost had one, until bureaucracy said different.

He will again be listed at reecesrainbow.org  Please go find him and do what you can to help him.

Thank you and much love to you all!
