Third Time is not the Charm

So a little update on my adoption stuff.  I have come to the conclusion it isn't going to happen.   In the past two weeks I have had my profile shown 3 times.  And 3 times I have of course not been chosen.   (Technically I've gotten 4 calls to show my profile).  The sad thing about it not working out is that all 3 of these babies have been born so it would be awesome because it would give me the summer to spend with them with no daycare.   Last time I wrote I talked about one of them and she did not choose me.  Found that out last week.   I got a call twice today about two different babies, yes both calls were today.   So congratulations to me...I'm not match worthy....though honestly I can't really blame them.  I'm single and unfortunately most will choose a couple over a single person..  And yes I can see other reasons as well.
While KCSL does keep a minimum of active families usually around 10, there are always new families and that number doesn't seem to go down so I am always going to have the possibility of  never being chosen.  I wonder what happens if they can't ever find a match for me.   :-(  
I have now been actively in a process to adopt for 3yrs.  I started my classes for fostering (well foster to adopt) 3yrs ago this week.  I know a lot of people wait a while, but it's been so frustrating.   And since it's been several girls in a row- it probably will mean that the next 100 will not be.   lol.
So there is my update.  Not getting anywhere still.  Thanks though to everyone who has been supporting me along this ridiculous journey.
