Like Not Getting Picked For American Idol

First of all, I don't mean to diminish the importance of being picked by a biomom--let me say that first.

You know how all the people on American Idol REALLY think they can sing? And then it hurts them so much when they are not picked? Someone who really sees them for what they really are turns them down - telling them they are NOT the best! That's how I am feeling. I guess I thought the two biomoms, looking at our profile, would both want us and the agency would have to decide who wanted us first--that would be the only fair way. But we haven't heard anything....how could they not think we would be the best parents for their baby?----what's wrong with us? What haven't we put into our profile that would convince them and show them how loving, honest, caring and bubbly we are??? I grin but tear up as i type this - I'm sort of totally serious!!?? What have they got that we haven't?----more money? A bigger house? other kids? ..........It's the stay at home thing isn't it??? Well???? What is it??????

I guess it's just with so many people it's hard to stand out. I had that problem finding a job out of college. 30+ people for every interview. I thought about wearing a pink suit to stand out.

I hope you do not have to wait too much longer. Good luck.

Kim Kim -
that's exactly why I prefaced it with what i did. I am not trying to diminish the severity of what it going on....
I was excited - i thought we were the best - we had to be. My hopes were up - i thought everyone would love us. Then i get a reality check --- no one liked us. When i watch American Idol and see that these people really do think they are the best and then they are told they are not - they are heart broken.....i guess i just felt like anyone who looked at it would think we would be the best parents for their child.....:(

Remember...these things take time!

Do you know how many couples are trying to adopt through your agency?

I know it's hard to wait (been there, done that), but just trust that when the scenario presents itself, it will be right.

You can't rush it or force it.
