A not so happy new year
Sadly, I thought this year was going to be the start of a new chapter for Tim and I, as I thought we would be the Pykett 3 in 2007. Nope, we were giving very sad news last Friday, our adoption agent emailed us and told us that we will not be traveling in 2007!! We were devistated, we didn't expect that news at all. We spent this Christmas as it would be our last with just the two of us, dreaming of how next Christmas and every day after that,will feel so different. We would now be blessed with a beautiful daughter, who would bring so much happiness to our lives and change it forever. This week has been filled with so many different emotions, we're not really sure what we are feeling now. Tim is going to call Alice next week, as she is on vacation this week, so maybe we will get some answers. We know that things happen for a reason and God has his plan for us, but sometimes you just feel like it's not fair. We knew going into an adoption that it wouldn't be a easy journey, and we would encounter many obstacles which we couldn't control. It's just harder than we thought. Nothing about this process is easy, but we know it will someday be all worth it! We will keep you posted on what we find out.

Tim and Sheila,
I am so sorry to hear this news. I can't say that I know how you feel, I've never had to go through so many ups and downs as you gys have in this adoption process, but both Danny and I will keep you in our thoughts and prayers. I truly believe that you two will be paired with the little girl that is meant to be with you, and maybe she just won't be ready in 2007. As soon as you have her in your arms, all the waiting that you've done will be worth it. Trust me!
Love, Kristen
Sheila and Tim,
We are very sorry to hear about this. This has been such a hard process for the two of you. You are always in our thoughts and prayers. If you need anything, a different shoulder to lean on or just to talk to, please let me know. We love you both!
Love, The Nielsen's
