I haven't updated anything since July. I guess this blog has become somewhat of a sad reminder of the fact that we still haven't been chosen. I'm sure there is hardly anybody reading it due to how much time has gone by since my last post. I keep hoping that the next time I update, I'll be able to say something like, "We have been chosen!" That has not been the case. We haven't been chosen. I am actually at the point where I am selling things. I am getting rid of baby things. Why? Don't we still plan on being chosen someday? Well, our house is small. We've had a cradle in our bedroom for over a year. It was meant to be a temporary arrangement. I've held onto totes and totes of baby boy clothes for the "what if" days. I even had a stash of newborn baby girl clothes, just in case. I gave those girl clothes away last week. The first step in decluttering my head. I am planning a purge of baby stuff. I'll be a little wise. I plan on keeping the crib and pack-n-play. I'm sure, if something happened suddenly, some friend would step up and help us out if we lacked something.
Here's to purging the house of baby things (while trying not to go overboard).

I'm still reading and check in at least once a week. :) It's sad to read that you are purging. I guess it's just one way to cope. I went through some of my newborn clothes last spring and donated some to the local crisis pregnancy clinic. It felt good to know they were going somewhere that they could be used.
I feel like purging too, Sarah! The waiting is getting extremely harder and emotionally draining!
Praying for you!
