Here we go again...

On to a new journey!  It has only been a few months, three to be exact, and I am ready to get the ball rolling again.  I have prayed about it and have talked to Brad.  Although he is still not 100% on board yet, I know this is what I was meant to do.  I have a gift and I feel like not utilizing that gift would be a waste.  I put an ad on a couple of the surrogacy forums, c.  lassified sections earlier this month and I have received close to 15 replies.  This time around is going to be very hard to replace the great relationship that Brad and I developed with Tara and George.  I have really high standards.  With that being said, I had a some really great candidates, a couple of nut jobs,  (one didn't want anyone to know they were using a surrogate, so she could use a belly bump for her family and friends) one not wanting to pay, and a few "same sex" couples.  I narrowed my search down to four women, whom I thought would be a great match for me and my family.  One of them was "perfect" and I finally talked to her on the phone and we just clicked.  Could this be, have I found someone!  I was so excited.  After speaking to her a few other times I was ready to take my ad down and move forward.  She called me two days later to give me the horrible news that her husband had gotten cold feet.  I was very disappointed, but I am in this give someone a child and I am not going to give up that easy.  I still had three other women on the table, so I started emailing them, one of them just stopped responding, another I talked to on the phone and couldn't get off fast enough, and then the third one that had a child already.  I always said that I wanted to do this for someone who didn't have any children, but I really clicked with this women.  We have been emailing back and fourth, and have Skyped once.  It is really hard to communicate with her because she lives in Poland and they are 7 hours ahead, but I think this may be my match.  I still have my ad up, as we have not yet officially said that we were willing to move forward, but I should talk to her tomorrow and maybe have a little more info on what route we are taking.  I hope this works out as I am not getting any younger. haha!  So until next time...
